How to Make Nutella Cake Filling

• Beat the Butter: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter with an electric mixer until it’s creamy and smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
• Add Nutella: Gently fold in the Nutella to the creamed butter, mixing until combined and fluffy.
• Incorporate Powdered Sugar: Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing on low speed until it’s fully incorporated.
• Pour in Heavy Cream: Add the heavy cream and mix until the filling is smooth and luscious.
• Mix in Vanilla and Salt: If you’re using it, add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, mixing well to combine.
• Use Immediately: Scoop the Nutella filling onto your cake layers or use it to frost cupcakes right away.
• Store If Needed: If you’re not using it right away, store the filling in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
