Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup packed brown sugar
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (for topping)
- 1.5 cups boiling water
Directions
Step 1
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Step 2
Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter will be thick.
Step 3
Spray the inside of a crock pot lightly with non-stick cooking spray, then spread the batter evenly in the bottom of the crock pot.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, mix together the brown sugar and 1/4 cup of cocoa powder. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter in the crock pot.
Step 5
Carefully pour the boiling water over the top of the mixture in the crock pot. Do not stir.
Step 6
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on HIGH for 2 hours, or until the cake is set on top but gooey and pudding-like underneath.
Step 7
Once done, turn off the crock pot and let the cake cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
Step 8
Spoon into individual bowls, making sure each serving has both cake and pudding sauce from the bottom. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
