Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup (230g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
4 cups (460g) confectioners' sugar
3/4 cup (225g) Nutella
1/3 cup (80ml) heavy cream or whole milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
pinch salt

Steps:

  • In a large bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Stop the mixer and add confectioners' sugar, Nutella, heavy cream, and vanilla extract. Beat on low speed for 30 seconds, then increase to medium-high speed and beat for 2 full minutes. Add up to 1/2 cup more confectioners' sugar if frosting is too thin or another Tablespoon of cream if frosting is too thick. Add a pinch of salt if frosting is too sweet. (I always add 1/8 teaspoon salt.)
  • Use immediately or cover tightly and store for up to 1 week in the refrigerator or up to 3 months in the freezer. After freezing, thaw in the refrigerator then beat the frosting on medium speed for a few seconds so it's creamy again. After thawing or refrigerating, beating in a splash of heavy cream or milk will help thin the frosting out again, if needed.

NUTELLA ICING



Nutella Icing image

It appears that many people are having trouble with this recipe. As I have always had great success with it, I can only assume our differences lie in the quality of the whipped cream available 'here' as opposed to other places. I get fresh whipping cream - not the ultra-pasteurised stuff, so this is probably where our differences lie. If you have a source for 'real' cream, and not cream that has been radiated, I'm sure you'll enjoy the same success with this recipe. This makes enough to ice a 2-layer cake - provided you can stop yourself from eating it up right out of the bowl (and the beaters...and the spatula...)

Time 8m

Yield 2 layer cake

Number Of Ingredients 3

13 ounces nutella
12 ounces whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Empty nutella, whipping cream and vanilla extract into the bowl of your mixer, and beat (slowly in the beginning to avoid splatters) on medium-high, scraping sides and bottom of bowl with rubber spatula occasionally, until you have billowy clouds of chocolate-hazelnut cream.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature butter and cream cheese. This will help the icing to be smooth and creamy.
  • Gradually add the powdered sugar. This will help to prevent the icing from becoming too thick or lumpy.
  • Use a variety of milks. The type of milk you use will affect the flavor and consistency of the icing. For a richer flavor, use whole milk or heavy cream. For a lighter flavor, use skim milk or almond milk.
  • Add flavorings. You can add a variety of flavorings to the icing, such as vanilla extract, chocolate chips, or sprinkles. Get creative and experiment with different flavors to find your favorite.
  • Chill the icing before using. This will help the icing to set and become firm.

Conclusion:

Nutella icing is a delicious and versatile icing that can be used on a variety of desserts. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you are looking for a simple icing for a quick dessert or a more elaborate icing for a special occasion, Nutella icing is a great option. So next time you are looking for a delicious and easy icing, give Nutella icing a try.
