Nutella Pudding Cake Filling Recipe

I made this Nutella pudding last week to go with my churro cake and let me tell you it was the best flavor combination ever! I love eating my churros with Nutella. So as I was experimenting with my churro cake recipe last week I was trying to think of a filling that would go really well with it!

I tried my Cream Cheese Pudding with it the other day but it wasn’t quite what I was going for although I loove cream cheese pudding. So I tried to think of my favorite way to eat just churros and that is dipping them in Nutella!!
