Ingredients

Ingredients for cupcakes:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and then cooled
2 eggs
1 tsp maple extract (I didn't have the extract so I used 1 tablespoon maple syrup)
1/2 cup milk
10-12 slices bacon

Maple Buttercream
Makes enough to frost 2 dozen cupcakes

2 cups confectioner's sugar
3/4 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon maple extract
Pinch of salt

(I wanted a lighter frosting. So I only used 1 cup of confectioners' sugar. But I whipped to stiff peaks, 8 ounces of heavy whipping. Then folded it into the frosting.)
