Hazelnut Buttercream Recipes

NUTELLA® BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• Combine butter and chocolate-hazelnut spread in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until creamy, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed on mixer to medium. Gradually add confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition and scraping down sides of the bowl as needed.
• After every 1 cup of confectioners' sugar, raise the speed of the mixer up to high and beat for 10 to 20 seconds. Add cream, hazelnut extract, vanilla extract, and salt. Beat until smooth.

• 3. Add the vanilla and the hazelnut praline paste. Beat together until a uniform color.

• Add the whipping cream and beat for about one minute, until the frosting lightens slightly in both color and texture.
