    TikTok is becoming the place to find unusual food hacks. One that caught my eye was the McFlurry cake. I am what you would call a connoisseur of the McDonalds McFlurry and I wanted to find out if I could really get a McFlurry flavored cake. Today, I am seeing if this popular TikTok hack WORKS and if the McFlurry is the best choice... or if some other fast food ice cream treat would do it better. Theorists, let's eat CAKE!

    When making a box cake mix, you can substitute applesauce for the oil. Oil makes a cake heavier and it dries out faster. Applesauce will make it lighter and fluffier and it will stay fresher longer and enhances the flavor, in my opinion. It's also a healthier alternative, not that cake is a "healthy" food. LOL I'm wondering if you would be able to substitute something else for the flour in those "mug cakes". I'm sure baking them in an oven instead of a microwave would probably improve the quality and taste. The frozen coke didn't work because it isn't ice cream, it's like a Slurpee or Icee, basically just flavored shaved ice.

I also think it actually tasted more flavourful the day after i made it after it had been in the fridge for a while. Overall, it tasted pretty good though.
