1container fudge frosting
1cupsemi-sweet chocolate chips
Vanilla ice creamfor serving
Instructions
Spray a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
Prepare the chocolate cake mix according to the package directions.
Pour the cake batter into the prepared slow cooker.
Drop spoonfuls of fudge frosting over the top of the batter. Do not stir it in.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top.
Cover and cook on low for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, watching the first time you make it so the edges do not burn.
Serve warm with scoops of vanilla ice cream.
Notes
Slow cookers vary, so start checking around the 2-hour mark the first time you make this.Do not stir the frosting into the batter. The frosting melts down and creates the lava texture.This dessert is best served warm while the center is soft and fudgy.
