Rejoice, foodies: Fall has finally arrived, and with it comes the greatest flavor combos known in the food universe.

While there’s plenty to be excited about, before you run out to the nearest Starbucks to splurge on a PSL or their new Toasted Graham Latte, try your hand at these easy, delicious and totally adorable single-serving fall treats. The most complex piece of equipment you need is a microwave, so you don’t need to be a fancy chef to satisfy your cravings and impress your roomies.

Oh, and the best part — they’re in Mason jars.
