    I couldn't find any store-bought pound cake or hazelnut spread, so I took a stick and a half of butter, 2 cups flour, 2 cups sugar, 9 eggs, 1 tsp. vanilla extract and 1/2 tsp. kosher salt. I creamed the butter and sugar for 5 mins in a mixer, then added the eggs one at a time. After 3 mins, when the mixture looked curdled, I added the vanilla and salt. Then, I added the flour in 3 installments, and mixed until smooth. I divided 2 pans and baked at 250 for an hour.

    Then, for the spread, I took 4 oz. toasted peeled hazelnuts, 2 tbs. vegetable oil, 2 tbs. powdered sugar, 1 tbs. cocoa powder, 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract, and 12 oz milk chocolate. All I had to do was grind the hazelnuts into a paste in a food processor, add the oil, sugar, cocoa, and vanilla, then incorporated the melted chocolate. I strained the mixture and let it cool.

    The rest of the recipe I followed (substituting the liquor and zest for Miracle Whip - DELICIOUS! Rachel you are a true culinary GENIUS!!

    Spreading Nutella on "store bought" pound cake is not a recipe, it's a serving suggestion. Its not even that original and this idea is presented all over the internet.

    A real recipe would be something like the Nutella Swirl Pound Cake recipe [made from scratch] which can easily be found by using Google or Bing.

    For all these reasons I can only give this serving suggestion [not a recipe] 1 lonely star. Sorry.
