Well, glad I've managed to sort things out, a breeze to relax and enjoy a slice of warm buttery Nutella filled butter cake on a sunny afternoon.
Tweaked/adjusted from the previous bundt cakes recipe that I've attempted here
Nutella Bundt Cake
Recipe:Makes one 6-cup Bundt pan or one 8-inch cake pan.
Ingredients (A)
113g unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 teaspoon salt
90g castor sugar
2 eggs, at room temperature (the size of my egg is 60g each with shell)
Ingredients (B)
100g All-purpose plain flour
80g cake flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Ingredients (C)
100g full cream fresh milk
4 - 5 tablespoons Nutella
Method:
Preheat the oven to 170ºC. Position the rack in the middle. The temperature of the oven may vary, do adjust the temperature and timing to suit your oven.
Combine Ingredients (B) in a medium bowl, sifted and set aside
Grease the 6-cup Bundt pan lightly with some *vegetable oil using brush or with kitchen towel, set aside.
(*or well-greased with butter and lightly flour)
In a clean mixing bowl beat together the butter, castor sugar, and salt until light and fluffy using an electric mixer on medium speed.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
With the mixer on low speed, add alternately the ingredients (B) & (C) starting with B (flour mixture in three additions) and milk (in two additions) [starting and ending with the flour mixture]. Mix well until just combined for each addition.
Pour half the batter into bundt pan and smooth the top. Next, spoon about 4 to 5 tablespoonfuls of Nutella and lightly spread evenly over the batter. Pour the rest off the batter in the pan, smooth the top.
*note: you could aslo make a swirl with a knife or skewer if you like. But I preferred the thick Nutella spread sandwiched in this bundt cake.
Tap the pan lightly on a table top a few times to get rid of any trapped air bubbles in the batter.
Bake the cake in preheated 170°C oven for 40 to 45 minutes. Check for doneness, insert a skewer in the center if it comes out clean with a few moist clumps clinging to it. Do not over bake else it will be dry.
Enjoy!
