Description

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350F and line cupcake pan with paper liners (or grease/spray with baking spray)
• In medium-sized, microwave safe bowl, combine cream cheese and Nutella and microwave at 10 second increments until the two can easily be stirred together (do not exceed 30 seconds).
• Stir together cream cheese and Nutella and then stir in sugar.
• Add egg yolk and vanilla and stir until combined. Set aside.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
• In another bowl, combine canola oil, sugar, buttermilk, eggs and vanilla extract, stirring until well-combined.
• Add flour mixture to canola oil mixture and stir until just combined (do not over-mix!). Stir in white chocolate chips, if using.
• Fill muffin cups 1/2-way full with muffin batter. Top with 1 1/2 - 2 Tbsp of Nutella mixture and then top with another spoonful of muffin batter so that muffin cups are about 3/4 full.
• Use a butter knife or toothpick to swirl the Nutella with the spoonful of muffin batter added to the top.
• Sprinkle with turbinado (or regular) sugar and then bake for 25-30 minutes (until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean or with few crumbs) and allow muffins to cool before enjoying.
