Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.33 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder (divided)
- 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
- 1.5 cups Hot water
Directions
Step 1
Lightly grease the insert of your slow cooker to prevent sticking.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of the cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3
Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture and stir until a smooth batter forms.
Step 4
Spread the batter evenly in the bottom of the slow cooker.
Step 5
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and remaining cocoa powder (about 3 tablespoons). Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter in the slow cooker.
Step 6
Pour the hot water over the top of the batter and sugar mixture, but do not stir. The water will create a sauce as the cake bakes.
Step 7
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on high for 2 hours, or until the top of the cake is set but still slightly gooey and the sauce is bubbly.
Step 8
Turn off the slow cooker and let the cake cool for 10–15 minutes before serving. This will allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
Step 9
Serve warm, spooned into bowls with a drizzle of the chocolate sauce and a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
