Bake at 350° for 20 to 25 minutes, or until tester inserted in center comes out clean or with slightly fudge looking crumbs. TOPPING: Combine syrup and butter, cook over LOW heat until butter is melted. Stir in brown sugar until dissolved. Remove from heat and beat in cream cheese and maple extract until smooth.
