A rich, moist pound cake swirled with creamy Nutella, creating a beautifully marbled, buttery dessert that’s simple, comforting, and impressive.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (226 g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk or cream
  • 3/4 cup Nutella

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C) and grease a loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the batter, alternating with the milk, until smooth and well combined.
  6. Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan. Spoon dollops of Nutella over the batter and gently swirl with a knife.
  7. Add the remaining batter, top with more Nutella, and swirl again to create a marbled effect.
  8. Bake for 60–70 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
  9. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Gently swirl the Nutella to keep distinct marbling.
  • If Nutella is too thick, warm it slightly for easier swirling.
  • The cake slices best once fully cooled.
