Directions:
Prep. I used a box spice cake for this recipe. But feel free to make one from scratch if you have the time.
After the cake has been removed from the oven and is cool enough to safely handle. Cut 1/3 of piece of the cake and pulse it in a food processor until you have crumbled cake.
Coat the back side of a tablespoon salted caramel sauce and swirl the inside of the serving glass.
Fill the glass a 1/4 of the way with crumbled spice cake.
Spoon in 4-5 tablespoons of pumpkin mousse (see recipe below)
Top with puffed marshmallow topping.
Turn on the oven to the broil setting. Place desserts onto a cookie sheet and place them into the middle shelf in the oven.
Allow the marshmallow cream to brown.
Remove from the oven.
Refrigerate until ready to serve.
