Crockpot Chocolate Molten Lava Cake


Crockpot Chocolate Molten Lava Cake

What you need:


1 c. + 3/4 c. sugar

1 c. flour
3 T + 3T unsweetened cocoa
2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
1/2 c. milk
2 T. butter
1/2 t. vanilla
1 c. chocolate chips
1 3/4 c. hot water

In a small bowl, mix together 1 c. sugar ( I used turbinado), flour, 3 T cocoa, baking powder, and salt.

In another bowl mix together the milk, butter, and vanilla extract. Then combine the 2 bowls and mix well.

Spray the inside of your crockpot with a cooking spray or oil and pour the batter mixture in the bottom. Top with the cup of chocolate chips.

Mix together the rest of the cocoa, the water, and the rest of the sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.

Pour that mixture on top of the batter and chocolate chips. Bake on high in your slowcooker for about 2 hours. (But make sure you watch the sides for burning and turn it down if it gets too well done too fast.)

After 2 hours turn it down to low and cook about another 2 hours. The times and temps will vary depending on your crockpot and the size of your crockpot.

When it's done, serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream, or just eat plain!

To make this recipe into an easy mix that you can store in the pantry here's what to do:
