As you know my daughters love Nutella cupcakes, the other day I didn’t feel like making cupcakes and I didn’t have the capsules so I said I could make her a Nutella cake and that’s what we did. The truth is that the flavor is the same and exquisite. Of course, they had to put their favorite chocolate on top.
Nutella cake is a delightful dessert that celebrates the irresistible allure of Nutella, the beloved chocolate-hazelnut spread. This indulgent cake is a decadent treat, featuring layers of moist and tender chocolate cake infused with Nutella. The luscious spread is often used both as a filling between the cake layers and as a creamy frosting on the outside. Some variations even incorporate Nutella into the cake batter itself, intensifying the rich chocolate flavor. The result is a heavenly confection that strikes a perfect balance between sweetness and nuttiness, with a creamy, velvety texture that melts in your mouth. Whether enjoyed as a simple sheet cake or transformed into an elaborate layer cake, Nutella cake is a crowd-pleaser that satisfies chocolate cravings and celebrates the joy of this beloved hazelnut spread in every decadent bite.
