Spice Mug Cake (A Multi-verse Cake)

If you don’t like wasting food, I hear you! I don’t like throwing out leftovers that didn’t get eaten or frozen before time expired. It’s money down the drain, so to speak. I’ve learned a lot about being resourceful over the years, how to repurpose or use up “whatever is in the fridge.”
My Apple Dump Cake recipe uses about ¾ of a box of dry cake mix. Even though you didn’t spend a lot of money on the cake mix itself, who wants to throw out the remaining mix? Not me. With less than half a box, this is what I came up with…another Multi-verse Cake!… single serve version.
Note: I have not tried this recipe with any other cake mix flavor. I would imagine it would have the same results, but I have not personally tested.

Whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, and/or caramel drizzle adds sweetness and creaminess that is simply delicious!
