Ingredients

1. Melt the butter in the microwave, then leave to cool.

3. Add the milk, flour and baking powder and mix vigorously until there are no lumps remaining. Mix in the melted butter, then leave to chill for 30 minutes in the fridge. Preheat the oven to 230°C (450°F/Gas 8) and grease the madeleine tray.
4. Pour a third of the batter into another bowl. Add the NUTELLA® and mix well until the the batter is one solid colour.

Bake for 3 minutes, then lower the temperature to 180°C (350°F/Gas 4) and continue cooking for 5 minutes.
