This recipe uses oh so simple, inexpensive ingredients, and it cooks up fast in the microwave. It’s perfect for those moments when you’re craving all the fall flavors of pumpkin-infused baked goods, but don’t want to deal with a full-blown baking adventure and all of the associated clean-up. I like to sometimes make one of these after the kiddos have gone to bed as a late-night snack just for me. 😋
All you need is some spiced cake mix, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, and milk. We added a dash of pumpkin pie spice to ours as well — it’s optional, but just adds an extra boost of warmth and coziness to the cake! 🎃 Feel free to throw in some chocolate chips to kick the flavor up a notch.
