Ingredients
- ¾ cup (180 g) whole milk
- ¼ cup (60 g) pure maple syrup
- 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (2 sticks / 227 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
- ¾ cup (150 g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon maple extract
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, whisk together the milk, maple syrup, and flour. Cook, whisking constantly, for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. It should have the consistency of a very thick pudding.
- Remove the pan from the heat and let the mixture cool completely to room temperature.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on medium-high speed for 2 to 3 minutes, or until light and fluffy.
- Add the cooled milk mixture, vanilla extract, and maple extract. Beat on medium-high speed until the frosting is smooth and creamy.
