Slow Cooker Chocolate Cake

Slow cooker chocolate cake you say? I had to make this one just so see if it was too good to be true. I'm posting the photo below because THERE WASN'T TIME to take a decent photo...this cake went that fast. It's no beauty for sure. You can't get it out of the Crock Pot without a serving spoon...so it's not your best choice to take to a party (unless you take the whole Crock Pot)!



This chocolate cake is beyond moist and densely chocolatey. It also could not be easier to make...and can be made with ingredients you probably have on hand. Serve it warm by spooning into bowls and topping with your favorite good quality ice cream. Our house favorite is Haagen Dazs Vanilla. YUM!
