Equipment

  • Oven

Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs at room temperature
  • 1.5 cups nutella or a good quality chocolate hazelnut spread
  • ½ cup all purpose flour

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F and adjust the oven rack to center.

  • Grease and line a parchment paper in a 8 inch baking dish. Set a side.

  • Add nutella and eggs in a large bowl and beat them with a hand blender or a whisk. Beat the mixture for three minutes, until it slightly increases in volume.

  • Add all purpose flour to the nutella mixture. Gently fold in the flour until well incorporated. Scrape the sides and mix thoroughly to avoid any flour sticking in the bottom of the bowl.

  • Transfer the prepared batter to the greased pan. Bake the cake for 25 to 35 minutes, until a tooth pick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.


  • Cool the cake in the pan for 10 minutes and then cool completely on a wire rack. Its important to cool the cake completely before frosting.

  • Frost the cake with nutella and enjoy a slice with a cup of cold milk.

Notes

  • Frosting can be skipped, but I wouldn't do it. It tastes really good with the frosting.
  • This nutella cake freezes beautifully. Slice the cake and wrap them individually in foil. Freeze them for up to 2 months. 
  • Defrost the frozen slice of cake for 30 minutes on the counter top or pop in the        microwave for 30 to 45 seconds.
