Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, butter, buttermilk and maple syrup.
Beat to combine, about 2 minutes.
Pour batter into a well greased and floured bundt pan.
Bake for 35-40 minutes until just done. Do not over bake or cake will be dry.
Cool on wire rack 1 hour.
Prepare icing. When icing has cooled and begun to thicken, slowly pour it over cake, letting it seep into the holes and drip down the sides. Repeat. Refrigerate remaining icing. Serve cake slices with additional icing drizzled on top if desired.
Turn out of pan onto a cake plate. Poke deep holes into cake all over with a long skewer.
Maple Icing
Place milk and brown sugar in a sauce pan and bring to boil over medium high heat, stirring often.
Once mixture boils, reduce heat to simmer and continue to cook for 8 minutes, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat and stir in butter and maple. Cool for 10-15 minutes then glaze or drizzle over cake. Makes about 1 1/2 cups. Store leftovers in a covered jar in refrigerator.
