Slow Cooker Lava Cake

 

Slow Cooker Lava Cake



One of my favorite items to use in the kitchen is the slow cooker.  It is so versatile and can cook a complete meal for me while I am at work...or I can make a warm, delicious, chocolaty dessert while I watch the Super Bowl.

This past weekend, I had four slow cooker's going with food for the big game.  One of the favorite dishes of the night was this recipe for Slow Cooker Lava Cake. 

Tip:  Use slow cooker liners when cooking in your slow cooker, for a much easier clean up!

SLOW COOKER LAVA CAKE

Ingredients:
1 box of Devil's Food Cake Mix
1 small box of instant chocolate pudding
1 bag of milk chocolate chips, 12oz (You can also use semi-sweet if you don't have milk chocolate).

Directions:
Prepare the cake mix according to the instructions on the box and then pour the batter into the slow cooker.  Next, prepare the box of instant pudding mix according to the directions and then pour into the slow cooker over the cake batter.  Once that is complete, sprinkle the bag of chocolate chips over the top of both batters.

Turn the slow cooker on high and cook the cake for 3 to 3.5 hours.  The cake will start to peel away from the sides once it is done.  The cake will also show little bubbles on top that looks like lava.  Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

After 3 hours on high, the cake is done!
It is even better the second day...if it lasts that long:)
