Ingredients

• Nutella Cream Cheese Frosting:
• 8 oz cream cheese at room temperature
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter at room temperature
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 2 oz Nutella

Preparation

Step 1

In the bowl of an electric mixer, whisk together the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Sift the powdered sugar over the bowl and whisk for a few seconds. Add the Nutella and mix until completely incorporated. That is plenty for 12 cupcakes by the way. Halve the recipe if you plan to do some Nutella and some plain.

For plain cream cheese frosting:
remove the Nutella and add 2 tablespoons butter to make it 1/4 cup total and 1/4 cup powdered sugar to make it 1/2 cup total. Same process.
