Ingredients Tip
  • 150 g sugar
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 200 g flour
  • 0.5 tsp baking powder
  • 0.25 tsp baking soda
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 150 g sunflower oil
  • 150 g buttermilk
  • Chopped hazelnuts (for sprinkling)
  • 100-150 g nougat , cut into small cubes (for filling)
For a special touch, add some hazelnut butter or hazelnut spread as a topping. The way to a person's heart is through their stomach! ❤️

Here's how:

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a muffin tray with baking cups.
  2. Prepare the dough:
    • Beat the sugar and eggs in a bowl until frothy. Add the vanilla extract, oil, and buttermilk and mix well.
  3. Mix dry ingredients:
    • Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a separate bowl and carefully fold into the wet ingredients.
  4. Fill muffin cups:
    • Pour a little batter into each mold (up to halfway). Press a piece of nougat into the center and fill with batter. Sprinkle with chopped hazelnuts.
  5. Bake:
    • Bake the cupcakes for about 18-20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the edge (not the center) comes out clean. Let cool briefly in the pan, then transfer to a wire rack.
  6. Serve and enjoy: Serve the cooled cupcakes with a soft nougat center.
