  • Baking Pan

Preparation of the mascarpone and Nutella cake

  • In a bowl, use electric beaters to mix eggs, sugar, mascarpone, milk, and Nutella until a homogeneous mixture is obtained.

  • Now add flour and baking powder, mixing initially at low speed. When the flour and baking powder are well absorbed, you can increase the speed of the beaters.

  • You will get a thick yet very creamy batter.

  • Butter and flour a springform pan (non-stick, 9.5 inches in diameter), pour the batter in, and level it with the back of a spoon.

  • Bake in a preheated oven at 392°F (200°C) for 60 minutes. Always do the toothpick test because every oven is different and it may take more or less time.

  • Once the mascarpone and Nutella cake is baked, let it cool, and only unmold it when cold, otherwise, it will break because it’s very soft!

  • Before serving, you can dust it with powdered sugar!
