Instructions
Watch how to make this recipe.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large bowl, measure out 2 cups of baking mix, and set aside.
In a medium bowl, beat together the egg, maple syrup, heavy cream, and vanilla.
Add the wet ingredients to the baking mix and beat until well incorporated but not over mixed, about 1 minute. Gently stir in the chopped walnuts. Using an ice cream scoop, fill the muffin tins about 2/3 full.
Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 10 to 12 minutes. Cool for 1 minute before removing the cakes from the pan and cooling completely on a wire rack.
Glaze: Stir together the confectioners' sugar, pumpkin pie spice, maple syrup, and heavy cream in a medium bowl.
Whisk the mixture slowly until it becomes a thick but pourable mixture, adding more heavy cream as needed. Dip the cakes into the icing bowl to coat the top, and garnish each with a walnut half. Arrange them on a serving platter and serve.
Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Port, Moscato Dasti
Cake can be paired with Cream Sherry, Port, and Moscato d'Asti. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. The NV Johnson Estate Cream Sherry with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 19 dollars per bottle.

NV Johnson Estate Cream Sherry
Very aromatic with notes of hazelnut, vanilla, and a touch of oak followed by sweet raisins and a touch of yeast. Clean lasting finish. Good now but will reward those allow it to age"". A favorite pre-prandial beverage. Consider it with nuts before dinner as an aperitif, or after dinner with dessert, especially chocolates and fruit-based desserts. Also wonderful on cold afternoons, served with biscotti to dip in ""Italian-style"". "
