INGREDIENTS
Mmmmm nutella!! 😄
Dissolve half a teaspoon of instant coffee in half a cup of boiling water and allow to cool down ☕️ Preheat the oven to 190 degrees Celsius.
Cream together the butter and caster sugar until light and creamy.

Break the eggs into a separate bowl and then add to the mixer, one at a time mixing well.
Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
Sift together the plain flour, cocoa and Bicarb soda into a large bowl.
Mix the buttermilk into the coffee.
Add the flour mix a couple of tablespoons at a time to the mixer and alternate with the coffee mixing well in between each addition.
Once everything is mixed together really well I poured my mixture into a jug so it was easier to pour into the patty pans.
Lay out your patty pans
Fill two thirds full.
Bake for about 15-20 minutes at 190 degrees Celsius. They are cooked when a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean.
Once the cupcakes are cool use a sharp knife to cut out a little hole in the top.
Fill the holes with a teaspoon of nutella 😀 * I microwaved the nutella for about 30 seconds so that it was a little bit runny, this makes it much easier to get the nutella into the cupcake.
To make the frosting place the unsalted butter into the mixer.
Add 1 cup of nutella
Whip until beautiful and creamy. Add the vanilla extract.
Sift the icing sugar into a large bowl. Add a large pinch of salt.
Add the icing sugar slowly to the mixer and whip until smooth and creamy. Add a little bit of milk if the mix is too thick.
Using a piping bag pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes and decorate how you wish! 😃 enjoy! *original recipe from: http://www.gimmesomeoven.com/nutella-cupcakes/
