Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for optimal mixing and a smooth batter. Be careful not to overmix the batter once the flour is added to prevent a tough cake. Adjust the microwave time for warming the Nutella® according to your microwave's power to avoid overheating. For a more intense Nutella® flavor, add a tablespoon of cocoa powder to the chocolate-hazelnut spread before swirling it into the batter.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder until well combined. In a separate large bowl, cream together the sugar and cream cheese with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Stir in the yogurt until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla bean paste. Gradually add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture, beating on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (15 minutes)
03
StepWarm the chocolate-hazelnut spread in the microwave at 360W until it is warm and easily pourable, about 1 minute. Stir well to ensure even consistency. If needed, microwave for an additional 30 seconds, checking frequently to prevent burning. (2 minutes)
04
StepPour half of the cake batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly. Drizzle two-thirds of the warmed chocolate-hazelnut spread in a swirl pattern over the batter. Pour the remaining cake batter over the chocolate-hazelnut layer, and then swirl the remaining spread over the top. Use a bamboo skewer or toothpick to create a marbled effect by gently running it through the batter in a circular motion. Avoid stirring the mixture excessively to maintain the distinct marbled design. (10 minutes)
05
StepBake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes before removing it and slicing. (70 minutes)

May 30, 2025A tip for others, use a long skewer to get a more even distribution of the Nutella swirl throughout the cake.
