How to Make Crock Pot Chocolate Mud Cake

  1. Generously grease a 2-5 quart slow cooker or crock-pot with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour and 2 teaspoons baking powder. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth, or in a double boiler over simmering water. Mix well.
  4. Whisk in ⅔ cup granulated sugar, 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, ¼ teaspoon salt, ½ cup milk, and 1 large egg yolk until fully combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared slow cooker and spread evenly.
  7. In a medium bowl, whisk together ½ cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, and ½ cup boiling water until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  8. Carefully pour the chocolate sauce over the batter in the slow cooker.
  9. Cover and cook on high for 1-2 hours, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs (cooking time will depend on the size of your slow cooker). The cake will be moist and sitting on a layer of molten chocolate; it's done when the edges pull away from the sides.
  10. Turn off the slow cooker and remove the lid.
  11. Let cool for at least 25 minutes before serving. (For a firmer cake, cool longer.)
  12. Serve warm in bowls, topped with whipped cream or a scoop of your favorite ice cream.
