Sandra and I were thinking the same thing this week. Chocolate! For her version see Slow Cooker Thursday.
I have tried several crock pot cakes. This one is the best one I have tried. My kids loved it. It is a combination of cake and pudding mixed together. I served it with whipping cream but ice cream would also be really good with it. It was best the first day. The second day I microwaved it and it was good but definitely better the first day.

We can never go wrong with chocolate huh? LOL
I’ll have to try this version, it looks SO good 🙂
Chocolate! Yummy!
The one time I tried to make a cake in my crock pot, it was for a teacher’s luncheon and on the way to the school, it fell over – talk about a mess on my floor board!
The next time, I’ll keep the cake at home. 🙂
Thanks for sharing! I am going to try and make it with homemade pudding too, I will have to figure out how to work that out since we have the house off Red Dye….
I wanted to comment on your comment on laura’s blog….
I am right there with you! We use real sugar (IT IS NOT BAD!) and I cook with SOME unbleached flour, but do maily use a great White Whole Wheat flour (try it, it is by king arthur, NOT whole grainy at all!) I feel we are eating the BEST we can with what we have… I think weeding out the ingred. that you can’t pronouce is the first and BIGGEST step! COngrats for taking it!
Thanks for the encouragement Denai.
