Nutella cupcakes

Can you think of anything better for a cold winter afternoon than a warm, hazelnut cupcake? Well OK, I can, but still, cupcakes are awesome :)
I took the recipe from my favorite site: Moje wypieki.

Ingredients for 12 cupcakes:

Cupcake Ingredients:
• 140g butter, softened
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 3 eggs
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 flat tsp. baking powder
• 1/2 cup Nutella

To Make The Cupcakes:

In the bowl of an electric stand mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add in vanilla.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder until combined. Add dry ingredients to creamed butter mixture and stir.

Line baking pans with about 12 paper baking cups, and fill each two-thirds full with batter. At the top of each cupcake add 2 tsp. of Nutella and make 'doodles' with a toothpick. Bake at 160 - 170ºC for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.

Bon appetit!
