Description
Indulge in a rich and fudgy Nutella cake that is perfect for chocolate lovers.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup Nutella
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup whole milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8-inch round cake pan by greasing it and lightly dusting it with flour.
- In a sizable bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and sea salt, whisking them together until thoroughly mixed.
- In a separate bowl, blend the melted butter with Nutella, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk, stirring until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
- Gradually incorporate the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s fine if there are a few small lumps.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared cake pan, using a spatula to level the surface evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for approximately 10 minutes before carefully moving it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy the cake as is, or sprinkle with powdered sugar for a touch of elegance.
Notes
- For an extra depth of flavor, consider adding a dash of espresso powder to the batter.
- You can swap half of the Nutella with creamy peanut butter for a delightful variation.
