Nutella Cupcakes

Recipe from Babble

Yield: 12 cupcakes

Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 30 minutes
 

Ingredients
 
¼ cup butter, room temperature

¼ cup canola or vegetable oil
¾ cup sugar

3 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla

1¾ cup all purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

¼ teaspoon salt

¼ to ½ cup Nutella, room temperature

 
Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.

In a medium bowl, beat the butter, oil and sugar with a mixer until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth.
 
In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt; add to the butter mixture and beat on low speed just until combined. The batter will be thick.
 
Divide the batter between 12 paper-lined muffin cups. Drop a spoonful of Nutella on top of each, and swirl through the batter with the tip of a bamboo skewer, knife or other pointy object. 

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until springy to the touch. Tilt them in the pan to help them cool.
