Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 1 & 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 & 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- Large pinch of sea salt
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup vanilla yogurt
- 1/4 cup Nutella
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly butter or spray a 9-inch springform pan.
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave and set aside to cool slightly.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and sea salt.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the vanilla extract and vanilla yogurt to the egg mixture and mix until combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
- Gently fold in the melted butter until the batter is smooth.
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan. Drop spoonfuls of Nutella over the batter, then pour the remaining batter on top.
- Use a knife to swirl the Nutella into the batter, creating a marbled effect.
- Bake for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For best results, ensure the butter is cooled before adding it to the batter. This cake can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
