Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Nutella Cream Cheese Cake.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 325°F (165°C) and generously greasing a 9x5-inch loaf pan to ensure your cake releases effortlessly.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and baking powder, whisking them together until they are perfectly blended.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to cream white sugar and cream cheese until the mixture is light and fluffy, creating a delightful base for your cake.
Step 4
Next, stir in full-fat plain yogurt until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.
Step 5
Add the eggs one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition, then mix in the aromatic vanilla bean paste for an extra layer of flavor.
Step 6
Gradually fold the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed to keep the batter tender and avoid overmixing.
Step 7
To prepare the chocolate-hazelnut spread, warm it in the microwave at 360 W for about 1 minute, checking its consistency and stirring; if needed, give it an additional 30 seconds to reach the perfect pourable state.
Step 8
Pour half of the luscious cake batter into your prepared loaf pan, then drizzle 2/3 of the warmed chocolate-hazelnut spread over the top in a swirling motion, creating a tempting pattern.
Step 9
Gently layer the remaining batter on top, followed by a swirl of the remaining chocolate-hazelnut spread.
Step 10
With a bamboo skewer, carefully create swirls in the batter, being mindful not to overmix, as you want to achieve a beautiful marbled effect.
Step 11
Bake your creation in the preheated oven for approximately 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, signaling that your cake is ready.
Step 12
Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan before gently removing it, revealing a stunning dessert that’s sure to impress.
Step 13
For an extra touch, consider serving it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful treat.
Step 14
Enjoy the rich flavors and the joy of sharing this delicious cake with friends and family!.
