  • 2. Directions: 1. Beat cake mix, next 5 ingredients, and 1 1/4 cups milk at medium speed with an electric mixer (used my Kitchen Aid) 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down sides as needed. Pour batter into a lightly greased 4-qt. slow cooker. 2. Cook remaining 2 cups milk in a heavy nonaluminum saucepan over medium heat, stirring often, 3 to 5 minutes or just until bubbles appear (do not boil); remove from heat. 3. *Sprinkle cook-and-serve pudding mix over batter. Slowly pour hot milk over pudding. Cover and cook on LOW 3 1/2 hours. 4. (optional if using pecans) Meanwhile, heat pecans in a small nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, stirring often, 3 to 5 minutes or until lightly toasted and fragrant. 5. Turn off slow cooker. Sprinkle cake with pecans, marshmallows, and chocolate morsels. Let stand 15 minutes or until marshmallows are slightly melted.

Tips:

  • Prep your crock pot: Generously grease the inside of your crock pot with cooking spray or butter to prevent the cake from sticking. You can also line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a toothpick to check for doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done. If it comes out with batter or crumbs attached, continue cooking for a few more minutes.
  • Let the cake cool before frosting: This will help the frosting to set properly. You can either let the cake cool completely at room temperature or speed up the process by placing it in the refrigerator or freezer for a short time.
  • Get creative with your toppings: In addition to the marshmallows and chocolate chips in this recipe, you can also add other toppings like nuts, sprinkles, or even crumbled candy bars.

Conclusion:

This crock pot cake is an easy and delicious dessert that's perfect for any occasion. It's also a great way to use up leftover ingredients. With a few simple tips, you can make sure your crock pot cake turns out perfectly every time. So next time you're craving a sweet treat, give this recipe a try!
