This is the most delicious chocolate buttercream I’ve ever tried! It combines chocolate and Nutella, two of my favorite flavors. It’s great for filling or frosting (I like it best with a yellow cake), and I like to use Heath Bar pieces in the filling to make it extra yummy!

Chocolate Hazelnut Buttercream

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 4 cups (1 pound box) confectioner’s sugar
  • 1-1/3 cups Nutella
  • 2 tsp. vanilla

  1. Cream butter and shortening. Sift cocoa with sugar and add gradually to the creamed mixture. Add a tablespoon of milk at a time until desired consistency is reached. Add Nutella and vanilla, and blend until smooth and creamy.

Worth every decadent calorie!
