Nutella Frosting

When my brother came home off his mission he introduced me to Nutella and my life hasn't been the same since. It was hard to find 9 years ago when he came home (wow, I can't believe it's been that long!!!) but now, you can find it at nearly every grocery store next to the peanut butter.

The chocolate hazelnut spread is good on toast, on bananas, with a spoon right out of the jar, and is especially good in frosting.

Nutella Cream Cheese Frosting


Ingredients

8 oz. (one package) cream cheese, softened
1/2 stick of butter (1/4 cup), softened
1/2 cup nutella
2 cups confectioner's sugar, or to taste

Preparations

-Mix the cream cheese and butter on high until light and fluffy.
-Add the nutella and mix on high until smooth
-Gradually add the confectioner's sugar

This recipe is so yum and it is the perfect amount of chocolatey.

This frosting is great with any flavor of cupcake. I personally prefer banana (will post a recipe soon) or just good old fashioned vanilla (see here). It is also good as a filling or in between graham crackers.

Happy Baking!
