PRESENTATION

Soft, moist centers and that iconic swirl of rich chocolate hazelnut set these Nutella cupcakes apart as a favorite with busy families and home cooks alike. Each cupcake has a decadent look, packed with a velvety Nutella buttercream, classic cupcake shape, and a glossy Ferrero Rocher garnish right on top—an easy upgrade for birthday parties, cozy family dinners, or special weekend treats. Chocolate lovers notice how the chocolate hazelnut flavor stands out, while that pretty Nutella filling inside brings an extra hit of sweetness. Biting into these cupcakes delivers a soft, almost creamy texture that families say is ALWAYS satisfying. Most people find Nutella cupcakes look just as good as any bakery cupcakes, while the golden, slightly domed tops and glossy topping always get noticed on the dessert table at family gatherings, holidays, or little celebrations at home (kids and adults both go back for seconds). There’s something about the crunch of a Ferrero Rocher, smooth Nutella layers, and deep cocoa flavor together that makes people smile... just DELICIOUS, simple, and fun year-round.

Families with a packed schedule love how these chocolate hazelnut cupcakes stay fresh and soft for days, so you can make them ahead—pretty big win for meal planning or when you want an easy treat everyone can grab. The combination of Nutella cupcakes and Ferrero Rocher garnish always brings a special-occasion feel, yet these are versatile enough for serving plain, with a simple swirl of extra Nutella, or a dusting of cocoa for weeknight snacks. Go all out for celebrations with fancy toppings, or keep it simple for after-school rewards and little family parties (they fit about any holiday, shower, or friendly get-together). Pair with milk, coffee, or a hot chocolate to balance the rich, satisfying sweetness. Pretty appealing, right? That mix of soft center, chocolate hazelnut flavor, and crunchy gold topping wins over even picky eaters, and great homemade Nutella treats like this are always a reason for people to gather around the table. Regular bakers and new home cooks both get reliable results—lots of happy faces, very little left over. With classic cupcake shapes, shiny chocolate hazelnut cues, and a little Ferrero Rocher sparkle, these treats always add that extra-special touch families enjoy.

How to prepare Panettone and Nutella® Cupcakes

To prepare the panettone and Nutella® cupcakes, first cut the panettone into slices 0.4 inches thick 1. From the slices, cut out 12 discs with a 2.4-inch diameter pastry cutter (2-3).

In a bowl, pour the cream cheese 4, heavy cream 5, and honey 6.

Whip with an electric mixer 7 until you obtain a firm and frothy cream 8, then transfer it to a piping bag with a plain nozzle 9.

Now take each panettone disc and fill it with Nutella® 10. Pipe dollops of cream on top 11 to cover the entire surface. Add some pomegranate seeds 12

and proceed with a second identical layer, filled with Nutella® 13, cream dollops 14, and pomegranate. Continue with a third and final layer, again filled with Nutella® 15,
