Ingredients

  • 2 cups baking mix
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup chopped walnuts

Glaze:

  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 12 walnut halves, for garnish

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper liners.

In a large bowl, measure out 2 cups of baking mix, and set aside.

In a medium bowl, beat together the egg, maple syrup, heavy cream, and vanilla. Add the wet ingredients to the baking mix and beat until well incorporated but not over mixed, about 1 minute. Gently stir in the chopped walnuts. Using an ice cream scoop, fill the muffin tins about 2/3 full. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 10 to 12 minutes. Cool for 1 minute before removing the cakes from the pan and cooling completely on a wire rack.

Glaze: Stir together the confectioners' sugar, pumpkin pie spice, maple syrup, and heavy cream in a medium bowl. Whisk the mixture slowly until it becomes a thick but pourable mixture, adding more heavy cream as needed. Dip the cakes into the icing bowl to coat the top, and garnish each with a walnut half. Arrange them on a serving platter and serve.

    Very nice overall. I added a cup of oatmeal for added nutrition and a bit of maple flavoring to add to the maple aroma. Only thing I'd change is to add more powdered sugar to thicken the frosting. As it was, I used a cup and a half and it still came out as more of a glaze.

    I made these to take to my ladies group. They were a real hit. The taste was great. I only got 10 out of the mixed ingredients. I had to increase the cook time to 20 minutes and increase the amount of powdered sugar for the frosting. It was too runny for me. I also increased the amount of vanilla extract. One cap was not enough for my taste.

    Great recipe. I love Sandra and her shows, but a capful of vanilla extract equals a HALF of a teaspoon, not one teaspoon as she has stated in many recipes. Thanks for all the great recipes, Sandra!
