This Crockpot Chocolate Cake is a rich and gooey dessert made from scratch using pantry staples. It’s cooked right in the slow cooker and topped with hot fudge, ice cream, whipped cream, and berries for an irresistible treat.

  • Total Time: 1 hour 45 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 3 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • Hot fudge, for topping
  • Ice cream, for topping
  • Whipped cream, for topping
  • Berries, for topping

Instructions

  1. Spray the inside of a 6-quart slow cooker with nonstick spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, canola oil, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  5. Pour the batter into the greased crockpot and smooth out the top.
  6. Place a clean kitchen towel over the crockpot, then cover with the lid to catch moisture.
  7. Cook on high for 1½ hours, or until the cake is set.
  8. Spoon servings directly from the crockpot and top with hot fudge, ice cream, whipped cream, and berries.

Notes

  • The towel under the lid helps prevent condensation from making the cake soggy.
  • Best served warm straight from the crockpot.
  • Feel free to switch toppings based on your preferences – caramel sauce, nuts, or sprinkles also work well.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator and reheat before serving.
