With Valentine’s Day on the horizon and a gigantic jar of Nutella sitting in my cupboard I thought what better way to spend a Saturday afternoon than to whip up some super easy Valentine's Day Nutella cupcakes?
I'm not a great cook but I followed this simple (only 3 ingredients) recipe and was rewarded with chocolately, gooey, delicious cupcakes. Here's the recipe if you would also like some gooey, chocolate deliciousness in your life.
Ingredients
For the cake
- 150g nutella
- 2 eggs
- 60g self-raising flour (I also added a bit of coco powder to my flour for an extra hit of chocolate)
For the icing (frosting)
2. 250g of icing sugar
3. 4 large tbsp of Nutella
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C.
- Mix the Nutella, egg and flour till thoroughly combined. Divide between 8 cupcake cases - they should be about two-thirds full.
- Bake for around 15 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.
- Cool on a wire rack.
- Whilst the cakes are cooling cream butter and icing sugar together and then use an electric mixer to mix the Nutella in – this should hopefully make the icing light and fluffy.
- When the cakes have cooled add a generous amount of icing and sprinkle with sugar hearts
- Stick on your favourite romcom and tuck in.
I also found this cute Ferris Wheel at Wilko for only £10, the best part is as you choose a cupcake from the stand the rest move round- it's soo much fun!
Have you made anything for Valentine's Day? What's your favourite way to eat Nutella?
I would love to know!
