Mini Nutella Tarts

March 11, 2012 By Naomi Robinson | Bakers Royale 18 Comments

This is the easiest no-bake Nutella tart created with an icebox style. These are like little bites of Nutella happiness, so grab a glass of milk sit back and have a few.

Nutella Tarts

I just realize this is a no-bake back-to-back post. But I’m all about fast and easy lately. With recent addition of tee-ball and homeschooling to the already hectic schedule I’m keeping it simple in the kitchen until I can find my pacing once more. And for those wondering, no I’m not planning on home schooling my son. It’s a necessary thing right now to keep his lottery number for the traditional classroom style kindergarten.

As I was saying, fast and easy . . .

These little Nutella Tarts couldn’t get any easier. All I did was fold in Cool Whip to the Nutella to lighten it up. While you can skip the white chocolate buttecream for some simple whip cream I don’t reccomend it. My first run of this recipe I did just that—I finished with whip cream. But I wasn’t crazy for it— too one dimensional, flat. In the second run, I thought maybe some texture would help, so I added Hazelnut filled wafers. That didn’t work, the wafers became soggy. So I came back to my original thought of just pairing the Nutella tart filling with a white chocolate buttercream and since it’s a Swiss Meringue variation I was able to keep the lightness of the whip cream. Bingo. Problem fixed.

As an aside, for those of you who are waiting for the next vanilla cupcake testing, I’m moving that to Fridays. So stay tuned because this week I’m testing out Cooks Illustrated vanilla cupcake that will be followed by a the rose cupcake tutorial that I mentioned a while ago. Yep, I finally just got around to completing it – sorry, for the delay.

A few notes:

  • The pre-made shells I used can be found here.
  • The Nutella tart filling can easily be scaled up or down according to your needs. The recipe ratio is a 2:1 Cool Whip to Nutella, ie. 2 cups of Cool Whip to 1 cup of Nutella.
  • Tarts can be fully assembled a day in advance and kept loosely covered and refrigerated.

Mini Nutella Tarts

Makes 48-50 1.5 inch tartlets

Ingredients:

Nutella tart filling

  • 2 cups of Cool Whip
  • 1 cup Nutella

White chocolate buttercream frosting

  • 3 oz white chocolate, melted
  • 2 tablespoons of heavy cream
  • 3 large egg whites
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 sticks unsalted butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Tart shells

  • 48 pre-made 1.5 inch tart shells
  • 4 tablespoons of confectioner sugar

Instructions:

To make Nutella filling:

Place Cool Whip and Nutella in a bowl and fold to combine.

To make white chocolate buttercream:

1. Place white chocolate and heavy cream in a heat proof bowl over simmering water and stir to melt; set aside
1. Combine egg whites and sugar in a bowl placed over simmering water. Bring mixture to 160 degrees F while whisking constantly.
2. Transfer mixture to stand mixer bowl, fitted with a whisk attachment and beat on medium high speed (speed 8 on a KitchenAid stand mixer)until mixture cools and doubles in volume and forms stiff peaks; about 10-12 minutes.
3. Add butter in one piece at a time, mixing to incorporate after each addition. The mixture may appear clumpy and almost curdled looking-this is normal. Keep mixing and it will become even and smooth again. Add salt and vanilla and mix to combine. Add cooled white chocolate and mix to combine.

To assemble:

1. Dust tart shells with confectioner sugar. Place Nutella filling in a pastry bag or a Ziploc bag and cut on corner, pipe filling into tart shell and then pipe white chocolate buttercream on top.

    I love Nutella but I can’t justify buying Cool Whip for one recipe. Hopefully stabilized whipped cream will work in it’s place.

Who else feels this? #ad Back to school has been off to a rocky start with mixed up carpool rides to missed days from being sick. Thankfully soups like this come together quickly and easily. All you need are just a handful of fresh ingredients and some pantry staples like @enjoyrealcoco Coconut Milk and @kettleandfire Bone Broth. Both of which are @TetraPakUSA  packaged. This means I can stock my pantry and not worry about rotating the food month-to-month. The aseptic packaging solution helps unopened food have a shelf life of six months or more without the need for refrigeration or preservatives. I’m telling you it’s the little things, like food packaging—something you don’t even think about most days, that ends up being the thing that can have the biggest impact sometimes! #ProtectsWhatsGood

Who’s ready to roll into fall with cozy, autumna Who’s ready to roll into fall with cozy, autumnal picnics? To kickstart the season, the kids and I are headed to the park to enjoy an Apple Spiced Cake and warm sips of Apple Cider sweetened with our favorite pantry staple, @truvia. #ad

Truvia Sweet Complete Sweeteners are zero-calorie and made with plant-based stevia sweetness. Whether you are using the All-Purpose, Brown, or Confectioners Sweetener, they measure cup-for-cup like sugar in your favorite seasonal baked goods! 

Apple Spiced Cake 
Serves 12 

3 cups (14 oz.) self-rising flour
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon fresh grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 
3 eggs
1 cup (6.25 oz.) Truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose Sweetener 
1 cup (5.75 oz.) Truvia Sweet Complete Brown Sweetener 
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup vegetable oil 
1 1/2 cups (5.5 oz.) peeled and shredded granny smith apple, about 2 large

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 10-12 cup bundt pan with non-stick spray. Set aside. 

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. Set aside.

In a second large bowl, add the eggs, and beat until combined. Add both the Truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose and Brown Sweeteners, whisk until fully incorporated. Pour in buttermilk, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil, whisk until combined. 

Fold dry ingredients into the wet until smooth. Add the grated apples and fold until just combined. 

Pour batter in prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes or until a cake tester comes out free of wet batter. Transfer cake to a wire rack and let cool in the bundt pan for 20 minutes. Unmold cake and let cool completely on a wire rack. Before serving, dust with Truvia Sweet Complete Confectioners Sweetener. Enjoy outside with a seasonal beverage!
