Ingredients

1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large egg whites
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

In the bowl, off the heat, combine the maple syrup, sugar, egg whites, and salt. Place over the simmering water and beat with a handheld electric mixer until the frosting is fluffy and stands in stiff peaks, about 6 minutes.
Remove the bowl from the water and beat for about one minute longer. Beat in the vanilla. Use immediately to frost cooled cake layers.

MAPLE WALNUT LAYER CAKE WITH FLUFFY MAPLE FROSTING

Maple Walnut Layer Cake with Fluffy Maple Frosting image

Here's a delicious twist on a vanilla cake Jennifer found in a vintage cookbook from 1954. The secret flavor is a hint of ginger. The frosting is a seven-minute icing made on the top of the stove. You must beat it continuously, but it's quick and easy, and the results are worth it!

Yield 1 two-layer 9-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

3 3/4 cups self-rising flour
1/2 teaspoon ginger
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
3 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups pure maple syrup
3/4 cup hot water
2 egg whites
1/2 cup maple syrup
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon maple extract
1 cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Grease and lightly flour two 9x2-inch round cake pans, then line the bottoms with waxed paper.
To make the cake: In a large bowl, sift together the flour and the ginger and set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and the sugar until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating until well combined. Beat in the maple syrup gradually. Add the flour mixture in thirds, alternating with the water, beating after each addition until smooth. Divide the batter between the prepared pans and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a cake tester inserted into center of cake comes out clean.
Let cakes cool in pans for 10 minutes. Remove from pans and cool completely on wire rack.
To make the frosting: In the top of a double boiler, combine first five ingredients. Cook over boiling water, beating constantly on the medium-high speed of an electric mixer, until mixture stands in peaks (about 5-7 minutes). Remove the pot from heat. Add the vanilla and the maple extracts and continue beating 1 minute more until thick enough to spread.
When cake has cooled, ice between the layers. Sprinkle about 1/3 cup chopped walnuts over the frosting. Then ice top and sides of cake, sprinkling the top with the remaining chopped walnuts.
