- Fill cupcake liners a little more than half way.
- Bake 50 mins to an hours pending on your slow cooker with a tea towel under the lid, The cupcakes are light brown in colour.
- While cupcakes cool, make icing.
- Mix butter together for 1 minute on medium,
- Add 2 cups of Icing sugar and mix until smooth.
- Add Nutella and 1 tbsp water and 1tbs cream, mix until smooth.
- Add icing sugar and 1 tbsp water and mix until smooth.
- Ice cupcakes.
- Please note, The butter may make the cupcake batter slightly lumpy, You can leave for a few mins and then mix again for another 30 seconds.
