Slow Cooker Chocolate Frosting Spoon Cake-Recipes My Mom Gave Me

Today, it's about 90 degrees in Michigan.  Of course, it feels like it's over 100.  But still, I made cake. This cake.  In my slow cooker!

It's crazy easy and tastes delicious.  I'm not kidding when I tell you that eating just one serving of it is impossible.

Recipe Notes

  • Cooking time is based on my slow cooker, which is a 6 quart.  Depending on the size and brand of your slow cooker, you may need to cook it longer or shorter.  When it's done, the middle of the cake will be set.
  • You can use any brand of cake mix.  It simply needs to be a standard size box.  15-18 oz will do the trick.
  • The same goes for the frosting. Grab any brand of pre-made chocolate frosting container and use that.  You won't need the entire container.  Only 1 1/4 cups of it.  
  • Be sure you don't mix the frosting completely into the cake batter.  Only fold it.
  • Do not make the instant pudding.  You will only need the dry mix.
  • Storage:  Keep any leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator.  It's best eaten within a week.

Spoon Cake?

Yep!  It's  a cake that you scoop  out of the slow cooker with a spoon and eat it with a spoon too. 🥄
