Sandra and I were thinking the same thing this week. Chocolate! For her version see Slow Cooker Thursday.
I have tried several crock pot cakes. This one is the best one I have tried. My kids loved it. It is a combination of cake and pudding mixed together. I served it with whipping cream but ice cream would also be really good with it. It was best the first day. The second day I microwaved it and it was good but definitely better the first day.
Slow Cooker Pudding Cake
- 1 package chocolate cake mix ( I used a home made cake mix and it worked great)
- 1 package (3.9 ounces) instant chocolate pudding mix
- 2 cups (16 ounces) sour cream
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup water
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
- Whipped cream or ice cream, optional
In a mixing bowl, combine the first six ingredients. beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Stir in chocolate chips. Pour into a 5-qt. slow cooker that has been coated with cooking spray. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out the moist crumbs. Serve in bowls with whipped cream or ice cream if desired. Yield: 10-12 servings.

The one time I tried to make a cake in my crock pot, it was for a teacher’s luncheon and on the way to the school, it fell over – talk about a mess on my floor board!
The next time, I’ll keep the cake at home. 🙂
Thanks for sharing! I am going to try and make it with homemade pudding too, I will have to figure out how to work that out since we have the house off Red Dye….
I wanted to comment on your comment on laura’s blog….
I am right there with you! We use real sugar (IT IS NOT BAD!) and I cook with SOME unbleached flour, but do maily use a great White Whole Wheat flour (try it, it is by king arthur, NOT whole grainy at all!) I feel we are eating the BEST we can with what we have… I think weeding out the ingred. that you can’t pronouce is the first and BIGGEST step! COngrats for taking it!
Thanks for the encouragement Denai.
