Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Boiling water
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 0.5 cup Chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the crock pot by spraying the interior with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Carefully stir in the boiling water. The batter will be thin, but this is normal.
Pour the batter into the prepared crock pot. If desired, sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over the top of the batter.
Place the lid on the crock pot and set it to the HIGH setting. Cook for 2 hours, or until the cake is firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Once the cake is done, turn off the crock pot and remove the lid to let the cake cool slightly for 15-20 minutes.
Carefully remove the cake from the crock pot using a spatula or serve directly from the pot. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
Optional: Serve with whipped cream, ice cream, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup for an extra decadent treat.
