Preparation
Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F) conventional or 160°C (320°F) with fan. Line a cupcake tray with 6 paper liners.
In a bowl or using a stand mixer, cream the butter with the sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Then add the dry ingredients and, on low speed, add the milk.
Divide the batter among the liners and bake for 20 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
Increase the oven temperature to 200°C (392°F) and place the slices of South Tyrol PGI Speck on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Spread a little maple syrup on the speck slices and bake for 12 minutes. Let cool on the parchment paper and cut into small pieces.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and softened butter. Gradually add the maple syrup and powdered sugar, ¼ at a time, beating until the mixture is soft and fluffy.
Using a piping bag, decorate the cupcakes, sprinkle with the chopped speck, and drizzle with a bit more maple syrup.
Enjoy!
