Did you know that some of the most decadent desserts can be made in the slow cooker? Slow cookers are best known for pot roasts, soups, and stews, but fabulous desserts can also be made in them. When the weather starts to get warm, it’s nice to know that dessert is on the countertop and no oven will be heating up the kitchen. Slow Cooker Chocolate Pudding Cake is a moist and delicious dessert that takes little effort, but will draw raves from everyone.

What could be easier than a triple chocolate dessert that starts with two mixes - a cake mix and a pudding mix? The other ingredients are most likely in the fridge or on the pantry shelves, so it can be assembled right away. Slow Cooker Chocolate Pudding Cake is perfect for the chocoholic, or anyone who likes moist, rich desserts. This is one that will be requested again and again.
