Pumpkin spice mug cake

Throw on your Snuggie and curl up with this autumnal favorite. The pumpkin puree can come from a can, or you can make it yourself by boiling diced pumpkin or butternut squash until tender, then mashing it with a fork. Of course, if you're into mug cakes, homemade pumpkin puree probably isn't in your bailiwick. In that case, for super easy pumpkin puree, buy buttermilk squash baby food. ( I wont's tell anyone.)
