Time 1h15m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup real maple syrup
2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon maple flavoring
3/4 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 -2 tablespoon milk or 1 -2 tablespoon cream

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350°F Lightly grease an 8" square pan.
Whisk together flour, salt, and baking powder; set aside.
Melt butter and brown sugar together in the microwave or over a burner; remove from heat and stir in the syrup. Allow the mixture to cool to lukewarm (I let it sit for about an hour).
Stir in the eggs one at a time, then the maple flavor.
Stir in the dry ingredients, and finally the walnuts.
Pour into prepared pan, and bake 25 minutes, just until the edges pull away from the sides of the pan. Remove from oven and cool before cutting and glazing.
To make the glaze: Whisk all three ingredients together, adding more liquid if necessary to make a pourable glaze.
