The spreadable cream donut is nothing more than a soft donut with cocoa that has Nutella in the dough.
I had to use up an open jar of cream and, above all, needed to prepare something for breakfast in the morning, so I thought of using it in the dough.
Those who follow me know that I don’t particularly love Nutella, but my son does, and since he left, the jar had been sitting in the pantry for a while without anyone consuming it.
To be honest, the recipe for the spreadable cream donut is truly delicious, soft, and delicate, also because I significantly reduced the amount of sugar needed (because Nutella already contains sugars and fats).
So, if you want to try using some spreadable cream in a different way than usual, bake the spreadable cream donut, you won’t regret it.

Ingredients
Recipe extracted from here and modified
- 1 1/2 cups flour (00 or type 1)
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 3 medium eggs
- 1/2 cup clarified butter (soft)
- 1/4 cup Nutella® (or other spreadable cream)
- 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp baking powder
Tools
I used a 9.5-inch bundt cake mold
- Bundt cake mold – 9.5 inches
- Electric beaters
Steps
– With electric beaters, whip the sugar with the butter until you get a smooth cream. Add the eggs, mix well, and then add the flour, cocoa, and baking powder previously sifted. Do this operation slowly, adding the powders to the dough a few spoonfuls at a time.
– When everything is well mixed, add the spreadable cream and finish the preparation. The final result should be a smooth and lump-free dough.
– Grease the chosen cake mold well and pour in the dough.
– Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 35/40 minutes; it depends on both the oven and the mold chosen; the bundt requires a few more minutes, so do the toothpick test.
– Out of the oven, wait about ten minutes, then remove from the mold and let the spreadable cream donut cool on a cake rack.
Tips and Storage:
– The sugar amount can go up to 170 g.
– The donut can be stored in a cake container in the pantry, and it stays soft for a long time.
