Very easy to make and quite delicious. When serving, I put a piece of warm cake into a bowl, covered it with 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream, then spooned the sauce over the both. A great dessert. Thanks for posting.

This turned out identical to a family favorite that I do in the oven, which is great!!! Now I will be able to put it on and walk away. Because of the similarities to the recipe I've traditionally used, I knew the pudding-like sauce would end up on the bottom (the cake floats up as it bakes). We dish it up, flipping the cake upside down into our serving dishes and then spoon some of the sauce over it. It turns out rich and moist...will definitely assuage a chocolate attack...Thanks for sharing this Chrissy!!!

I never would have believed you could make such an easy delicious cake in a crockpot! The sauce was the perfect compliment to this rich and fudgey cake. I prepared as directed, only using my 5 1/2 Qt. crockpot which still took 2 hours to cook. Vanilla ice cream would be perfect with this cake. Thank you Chrissy, for such a simple and simply delicious treat!

Yummy and comforting. Just what I needed today. I left out the nuts and served with vanilla ice-cream. There was a generous amount of sauce and mine was cooked in 2 hours. Thanks Chrissy!
