All-the-Way Nutella Cupcakes posted by Staff Writer Pin Share Tweet Email Nutella is my favorite flavor, so All-the-Way Nutella Cupcakes with Nutella cupcakes, Nutella filling with Nutella buttercream frosting. 🤩 Nutella is my favorite thing in the world. I mean… there is my daughter. And my husband. Ok. It’s my third favorite thing in the world. (on a good day, anyway) But anytime I’ve ever gone to look for a Nutella Cupcake recipe, my search has left me unsatisfied. I can usually find chocolate cupcakes with Nutella buttercream.

These do look tasty! So. I am that person. The one person left on the planet (maybe?) who has not had Nutella. I see it in the store. I think about buying it. But I’m afraid of getting addicted! Maybe I need to go completely nuts and try this recipe! Your pictures make everything look so darn good… Reply
You and Nutella, man. A love affair I could never break up but I would try really darn hard just to taste this. I mean, a little smidgen of a taste… you may turn me onto Nutella, after all. Reply

I’ve just tried to make these the milk was left out of the instructions and they are just puddles in my tin and haven’t cooked properly Reply
So sorry for the typo! The milk made it into the ingredients list, just not into the instructions!! I’ll fix now. Sorry for your cupcakes! Reply
Hi there! These look great and I am thinking of making them–can anyone tell me what the approximate yield is for this recipe? Reply
I was very excited about making these for World Nutella Day, but they spread out all over my muffin pans and I had to remove the crusty tops to get them out. I wasn’t left with much to frost. The only thing I did differently was to use butter instead of shortening. Could that have caused the problem? I use butter all the time in cupcakes, normally. They tasted good but didn’t look too great. Reply
Hi there! So sorry– but yes, I think the butter is the problem. I always use shortening when dealing with Nutella, simply because the added sugar from the nutella makes just about anything baked (cookies, cupcakes, etc) spread.The higher melting temp for the shortening sort of evens that out.
