1. • 113g unsalted butter, room temperature

   • 450g powdered sugar

   • 200g Nutella hazelnut spread

   • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

   • 2-3 tablespoons whole milk

2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

3. In a separate bowl, mix together butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and Nutella hazelnut spread until well combined.

4. Alternating between the flour mixture and whole milk, add the dry ingredients and wet ingredients to the bowl with the butter mixture, mixing until just combined.

5. Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full and bake for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

6. For the frosting, beat the butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.

7. Gradually add in the powdered sugar, Nutella hazelnut spread, vanilla extract, and beat until fully combined.

8. Gradually add in the whole milk, a tablespoon at a time, and beat until the desired consistency is reached.

9. Stir in the salt.

10. Once the cupcakes have cooled, pipe the frosting onto each cupcake using a piping bag and drizzle with extra Nutella hazelnut spread as desired.
