Aunt Liz's Hazelnut Icing for Chocolate Fudge Cake

You must have this icing with the Betty Crocker Super Moist Chocolate Fudge cake mix.  It's so wonderful.


Ingredients:
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 cup Nutella (I used almost all of the 13 oz container)
5 Tablespoons unsalted butter, room temp.
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup heavy cream

Directions:
1.  Cream the butter until smooth with no lumps.
2.  Add confectioners sugar and cream the butter and sugar together.
3.  Add vanilla and salt.  Mix for 20 seconds.
4.  Add 1/2 cup Nutella and the heavy cream.  Mix.
5.  Add the remaining 1/2 cup Nutella and mix.
6.  Beat until the consistency is even and thickens like icing. 

Once your cake is cooled you can ice and enjoy.
