Crock Pot Chocolate Cake

Viclynn's Note:

This is a great summer dessert because you don't heat up the kitchen from the oven. The gooey, rich fudge sauce that rests under the cake is a bonus! My daughter requests this over and over again....

Oh my goodness, what a delight this was. Easy peasy. This is definately going to become a classic in our household. made it for a sunday dinner. Put the crock pot on, put in all the ingredients as described and left it to do its own thing, and it was the most decadent, delicious pudding we have ever had. 10/10 chef.
