Maple Frosting image

I wanted a maple frosting but didn't want to use cream cheese as it is often too rich, so I experimented and here is what I came up with. I used it on the PUMPKIN MUFFINS FILLED WITH SPICED MARSHMALLOW CREAM (recipe found here in J.A.P. by Didi Dalaba) Hope you try it and let me know what you think!

1/2 c butter (softened)
8 oz mascarpone cheese (softened)
2 Tbsp pumpkin (pure, not pie filling)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 Tbsp pumpkin pie spice
1/3 c pure maple syrup
2 1/2 c confectioners' sugar (sifted) may add more, if needed.

Steps:

  • 1. In stand mixer, on medium speed, cream butter,mascarpone cheese and vanilla together until creamy (about 4-5 minutes) On slow speed add remaining ingredients (slowly adding confectioners sugar, a little at a time until blended). Blend another 10 minutes on high speed or until frosting is very light and creamy. NOTE: the longer you beat the ingredients the smoother and airier the frosting will be.
