Molten Dark Cocoa Pudding Cake Slow Cooker 4-Ingredient
Servings: 6-8

Ingredients

  • 1 box (15.25 oz) chocolate cake mix (pick dark chocolate or devil’s food if you can)

  • 2 cups whole milk

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks (60–70% cocoa)

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (dark or Dutch-process is best)

Molten Dark Cocoa Pudding Cake: Directions

  1. Rub a little butter or nonstick spray inside your 4- to 6-quart slow cooker. This stops sticking and keeps edges soft and chocolatey.

  2. In a big bowl, mix the cake mix and cocoa powder with a whisk. Stir well so the cocoa spreads even—no lumps!

  3. Add the milk. Use a spoon or spatula to stir into a thick, smooth batter. It’s not as thick as brownies but thicker than pancakes.

  4. Mix in most of the chocolate chips. Save a tiny bit (about 2 tablespoons) to put on top later for extra shine.

  5. Pour batter into the slow cooker. Spread it flat. Add saved chips on top—don’t mix them in. They’ll make gooey spots.

  6. Put the lid on. Tuck a clean towel or paper towels under it to catch drips and keep the top dry. Keep towel away from heat.

  7. Cook on LOW for 2.5 to 3.5 hours. Check: edges pull from sides, top looks shiny and set, middle jiggles a bit. Toothpick near edge has wet crumbs; center stays gooey.

  8. Turn off heat. Leave covered for 10–15 minutes. This makes the chocolate in the middle thick and shiny, but still soft.

  9. Serve warm! Scoop from top to bottom for cake and sauce. Use WARM setting if eating over time.

  10. Put leftovers in a covered dish in the fridge within 2 hours. Warm bits in microwave till gooey again.

Serve warm in bowls—plain or with ice cream, whipped cream, berries, nuts, or chips. Put the slow cooker on the table for a topping party! Goes great with coffee, decaf, or milk.
