Directions:Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour two 9" round layer cake pans and set aside. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, 1-1/4 cups water, oil, and egg whites and blend. Beat two minutes at high speed. Fold in the finely chopped vanilla milk chips. Pour into prepared pans and bake at 350 degrees for 25-35 minutes until toothpick inserted in cake comes out clean. Cool on wire rack for 15 minutes, then remove from pans and cool completely on wire rack.
For filling, beat cream cheese, 1/3 cup maple syrup, and vanilla extract in small bowl until smooth. Beat whipped cream and 2 Tbsp. powdered sugar until stiff and fold into cream cheese mixture. Refrigerate while preparing frosting and glaze.
For frosting, beat together 2 cups powdered sugar, 1/2 cup softened butter, 2 Tbsp. maple syrup, and enough milk for a smooth spreading consistency. Set aside.
For glaze, in small saucepan heat together 1 cup vanilla milk chips with 2 Tbsp. milk, stirring constantly until smooth. You may need to add more milk for a pouring consistency. Set this pan in a bowl of hot water to keep warm.
Place one cake layer upside down on serving plate. Top with all of the maple filling. Place remaining cake layer, right side up, on top of maple filling. Pour white chocolate glaze over top of cake, spreading gently if necessary to cover top. (If some glaze drips down sides of cake, that's ok; the glaze should be stiff enough so it moves very slowly.) Frost sides of cake with the frosting. Store cake in refrigerator |
