• Pumpkin Spice Latte Mug Cake

  This is a guest post from Kirbie's Cravings.
  
  

  

  It’s been a while since I made a mug cake recipe. Don’t worry, I haven’t abandoned my mug cake series. I already previously made a pumpkin mug cake. A visit to Starbucks inspired this pumpkin spice latte mug cake.
  
  This doesn’t taste exactly like the drink, but the cake has hints of coffee, pumpkin spice and pumpkin. I topped it with some whipped cream frosting and cinnamon but next time I might top it with some pumpkin latte spice frosting to really enhance the pumpkin spice latte flavor.
  
  

  

  Pumpkin Spice Latte Mug Cake

  Yield: 1-2

  Ingredients:

  For the cake:

  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons skim milk
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 7 tablespoons all purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp pumpkin spice
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

   

  For the frosting:

  • 1 cup of heavy cream
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons brewed pumpkin spice coffee

  Directions:

  1. Place all ingredients into an oversized mug. Mix together with a small whisk or fork. If you don't have a huge oversized mug, split the batter into two cups and cook them separately.

  2. Microwave on high for 1 minute for small mug and 1 minute 30 second for large. Check doneness. Microwave for 30 second intervals until done. I made mine one giant serving and it was done at 2 minutes.

  3. While cake is cooling make frosting. Beat heavy cream, coffee and sugar on high speed until peeks form. Top on cake when cooled. You can also add a little bit more cinnamon over frosting.
