Chai Maple Icing

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350° F. Generously grease a 13x9x2-inch baking pan; set aside.
  2. Peel, core, and shred one of the apples on the large holes of a box garter set over a bowl. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl whisk the melted butter, brown sugar, apple butter, eggs and vanilla until smooth. Cut open the tea bags and add the tea leaves to the bowl along with the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; whisk to combine. Fold in the shredded apple and its juices an date dried apple pieces. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  4. Thinly slice about half of the remaining apple and arrange the slices on top of the batter.
  5. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove to a wire rack.
  6. While the cake is baking make the icing. Combine the powdered sugar, butter, maple syrup, milk, Stash Tea, Double Spice Chai Black Tea leaves and vanilla extract. Whisk until completely smooth with no lumps remaining then immediately pour over the hot cake as soon as it comes out of the oven. Spread the icing evenly with an offset spatula or a butter knife. Cool completely. Dust with cinnamon right before serving.
