Fluffy Nutella Buttercream Frosting
This Fluffy Nutella Buttercream Frosting is a dreamy blend of rich hazelnut chocolate and velvety smooth texture that elevates any dessert. In just 10 minutes, you can whip up this luscious frosting that’s guaranteed to impress.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter (softened)
- ⅔ cup Nutella (at room temperature)
- 4 cups powdered sugar (sifted)
- ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder (sifted)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2-4 tablespoons milk
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (or with a medium bowl and a handheld electric mixer), whisk the butter and Nutella on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Lower the speed to low and slowly add in the powdered sugar and cocoa powder until combined.
- Add in the vanilla extract and 2 tablespoons of milk, increase the speed to medium, and whisk for another minute, until combined. (If the frosting is too thick, add more milk, one tablespoon at a time, and whisk in)
- Use immediately or store at cool room temperature for up to 1 day. For longer storage, refrigerate until ready to use. Let it come back up to room temperature before using it for the best-spreading consistency.
