Nutella and Pecan Cupcakes

Nutella and Pecan Cupcakes

Well I must say this was my first attempt at cupcakes. I figured it couldn’t be that difficult. My two favorite ingredients of all time are nutella and pecans so I took a basic recipe of white cupcakes and turned it into my own by adding pecans and nutella and they turned out absolutely gorgeous.

I had these cute mini pink muffin liners so I placed one in each muffin slot of my mini muffin pan.

In a bowl I added flour sugar and baking powder and mix.

In another small bowl, I added the milk, butter and eggs.

Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture and mix.

Add finely chopped pecans to the cupcake mix.

Mix well.

Drop about a tablespoon of the mixture in each muffin liner. You need to use about half of the cupcake mixture.

Now the fun part, drop a teaspoonful of nutella in each muffin liner.

Now take the remaining cupcake mixture and fill in the muffin cups with another tablespoonful.

Bake at 350 F degrees for about 20 minutes or until done.

They are so cute and adorable.
