How to Make Crock Pot Self Frosting Chocolate Cake

  1. Grease a 6-quart slow cooker.
  2. In a large bowl, combine one 15.25-ounce box of chocolate cake mix, 3/4 cup water, 1/3 cup vegetable oil, and 3 large eggs. Mix until just combined.
  3. Stir in 1 cup of chopped nuts (optional).
  4. In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup chocolate syrup, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup warm water until the sugar dissolves.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared slow cooker.
  6. Drizzle the chocolate syrup mixture evenly over the batter.
  7. Cover and cook on low for 2-3 hours, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs (do not overcook).
  8. Let the cake cool completely in the slow cooker before serving. The cake will continue to set as it cools.
