Whisk all the ingredients together thoroughly until the peanut butter is evenly incorporated and the cocoa powder is dissolved.
Cover with the lid and set the crock pot to 'LOW' heat.
Cook for 2 hours, stirring occasionally to ensure the mixture doesn’t stick to the bottom and all the ingredients are well combined.
