Nutella Swirl Pound Cake

I have been trying to clean out my fridge, and noticing that I have quite a lot of fat ingredients sitting  in the fridge. Since I have a jar of Nutella left, I thought I would add some in today's recipe.


It is a quick bread recipe, it is very easy and fast to make. Combine all ingredients together, mix well then it is done!



Here is the ingredients you need:


Butter (placed in room temp.)     3 Tbsp/ 50g
Cream Cheese (room temp.)       1/2 C,  100g
Sugar                                           3 Tbsp / 50g
Egg                                               2
Cake Flour                                   1 C/ 120g
Baking Powder                            1/2 tsp
Milk                                             1 Tbsp
Vanilla Extract                            1 tsp
Nutella                                         2 Tbsp


Instruction:

1) Pre-heat oven to 360F
2) Cut baking sheet place for a baking pan for the size of 4" x 11"
3) In a bowl, using an electrical mixer to beat cream cheese and butter which is placed in room temperature for at least 20 minutes until well mixed
4) Beat in sugar.
5) In another bowl, beat 2 eggs
6) Slowly beat in beaten eggs in 3 portion into the batter, mix well before adding another portion of egg mixture
7) Using sifter to shift flour into batter, mix until well blended
8) Add is baking powder and vanilla extract, mix well
9) Once your mixture is ready, spoon 1/3 of batter into another bowl, mix nutella until cooperated
10) Now you have 2 colour of better, pour nutella batter on top of the original batter, using a spatula to cut through batter using a "8" motion. (as if you are writing the number 8 when mixing the batter)
11) Slowly and gently mix using the 8 motion for about 8 times
12) Pour batter into pan, gently smoothen the surface
13)To create a pattern on surface, use a toothpick/ skewers or chopstick and dip in nutella, gently draw lines across the surface of the batter
14) Using another clean toothpick, ( not dipping in nutella this time) draw across the surface in an opposite direction. (if you draw your line with nutella across horizontally, you need to draw across with a clean toothpick from the top to bottom)
15) Bake for 30 minutes or until insert comes out clean
