Chocolate Hazelnut Cupcakes

In case you didn't see my guest post over at Life as a Foodie yesterday, you really should. See, these luscious cupcakes have Nutella in both the cupcake AND the frosting. And as well all know, Nutella is like butter -- it makes everything better. :)


So hurry, run, sprint, get over to Life as a Foodie and check these out! And while you're there, check out the rest of Kim's blog. Not only is Kim a great friend, I love her blog and the way she likes to tell it like it really is.

  12. Those are beautiful. May I ask, what type of tip did you use to make the swirls??

  13. @LorelleI use either a 2D or 1M tip to give the frosting that swirly look.

    1. I believe it was just a riff on my peanut butter cupcake -- simply sub Nutella for the peanut butter. And start subbing the Nutella for the cocoa powder in the frosting, but start with a small amount and add until you get the desired flavor.
