Crockpot Chocolate Cake

04 February 2009


Recipe found here. It is definitely one to try, even if you have an ovento bake cakes in! Marianna says ( and I agree) that the cake batter is one of the most delicious things she ever has tasted.

The cake ain't too shabby either.



1 pkg. two layer chocolate cake mix
3 oz. pkg. instant chocolate pudding mix
4 eggs
1 cup water
2 cups sour cream
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup chocolate chips



Spray a 4 quart crockpot with non-stick cooking spray and set aside. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix and pudding mix. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with the water, then add the sour cream and oil and beat until smooth. Add to the dry ingredients and beat well. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Pour into crockpot. Cover slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours, until top springs back when touched very lightly with finger. Alternatively, as I can never properly follow a recipe - we cooked it on high for 1 hour and low for 2 or maybe 3 additional hours.



Very moist, very delicious. We melted chocolate chunks over the top and smeared it around like frosting, upping the delicious factor by 10%.

Just try it. You'll like it!
