Chocolate Cake with Nutella Buttercream Frosting

Nutella Love!

First, who doesn’t love Chocolate? Secondly, who doesn’t love Chocolate Cake with Nutella Buttercream Frosting?

I have yet to meet one person. I know I am a couple days late for world Nutella day. I was undecided about what I wanted to do with my lovely jar of nutella. 

I started to just eat it with a spoon, then I said maybe I should make some biscuits and dip them in Nutella? Well, when looking for an ideal of what to do with Nutella and Chocolate, where else would one go besides, you guessed it,  pinterest! 

I came across the beautiful Ms. Libby’s, of Twirl and Taste All-American Chocolate Cake and I was convinced, that Chocolate Cake and Nutella was the way to go!
