An easy, gooey chocolate cake to make in your slow cooker!
Ingredients
For the cake:
- 15.25 oz. box of chocolate cake mix
- 3 eggs
- 1 and 1/4 cups milk (I used 2%)
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
For the topping:
- 3.9 oz. size box of chocolate instant pudding (4 serving sized)
- 2 cups milk
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
For serving:
- vanilla ice cream
Directions
1
To make the cake:
Beat together cake mix, oil, eggs, and milk with an electric mixer for a few minutes until the batter is smooth.
2
Spray slow cooker with nonstick spray so the cake won't stick. Pour mixture into the slow cooker and smooth over the bottom.
3
To make the topping:
Beat together the 2 cups milk and pudding and pour over the top in the slow cooker. Do not stir. Then sprinkle chocolate chips over top without stirring.
4
Cover and cook on high for around 2 hours, but start checking at 1 hour 45 minutes. You'll know when it is done when the outsides and top are set up like a sponge - the middle will be gooey.
5
Serve with vanilla ice cream if desired. Enjoy!
