Maple Frosting By Ina Garten
Frosts the tops of a layer cake or 10 cupcakes.
6 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature. Be sure the cream cheesse and butter are absolutely at room temp or the frosting will be lumpy. I leave them on the counter overnight.
3 Tbs. unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 Tbs. pure maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups sifted confectioners; sugar
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the cream cheese, butter, maple syrup and vanilla on medium low speed until very smooth. With the mixer on low, SLOWLY add the confectioners; sugar and mix until smooth.
