Line a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan with waxed paper and grease the paper; spread batter into pan.

Add confectioners' sugar and enough maple flavoring to achieve a spreading consistency. For filling, in a small bowl, beat 1 cup frosting with whipping cream until soft peaks form.

Cut cake horizontally into two layers.
Place bottom layer on a serving plate; spread with filling. Top with second layer.
