Happy Wednesday everybody!! Y’all, so I’m just going to go ahead and be 100% basic and say I can’t even with this Crock Pot Chocolate Lava Cake. That’s right everybody, this cake is so incredible, so decadent, so ding dang good that I was made mildly speechless with the first bite that I actually said ‘I can’t even, ‘ and maybe with a small moan and eye roll thrown in for good measure.
You guys, if you don’t have the ingredients for this cake at home, go ahead and just go to the store so you can get this stuff cooking as soon as possible. If you can imagine the way a moist milk chocolate cake mixed with warm gooey uncooked brownie mixed with unicorns with even more gooey chocolate then you might have a concept of how amazing this is.
Oh, and the fact that I basically threw the ingredients into the crock pot and left it for a few hours and came back to this amazing and decadent dessert makes it a billion times better than it already is. I may or may not have thrown some vanilla ice cream onto my millionth second bowl of it, so you know, just throwing that out there if you want to enjoy that too.
Also, if you’re looking for an easy & sexy dessert for your special Valentine this Sunday, then here you go, look no further. Have a wonderful day!!!

- 1 Box of Super Moist Chocolate Fudge Cake Mix ( I Used Betty Crocker).
- 1 1/4 Cups of Milk.
- 1/2 Cup of Vegetable Oil.
- 3 Eggs.
- 1(4 Ounce) Box of Instant Chocolate Pudding and Pie Filling Mix (I Used Jell-O Brand).
- 2 Cups of Milk.
- 1 (12 Ounce) Bag of Milk Chocolate Chips.
- Liberally spray your 6 quart crock pot with Baker's Spray, set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl with handheld mixer, mix your cake mix, milk, eggs and oil together until smooth.
- Pour your cake mix into your crock pot.
- In a small/medium bowl place your dry pudding mix and milk into your bowl and whisk until it has thickened, about 3-5 minutes.
- Pour your pudding into your cake batter in your crock pot, do not mix in.
- Now pour the bag of chocolate chips on top of your pudding and cake batter.
- Place your cover on top of your crock pot and on low setting cook for 2 hours & 30 minutes to 3 hours or until pudding is bubbling a little (Mine was done at about 2 hours & 45 minutes).
- Place your crock pot on warm so your cake will not cook anymore & so that you can serve warm with vanilla ice cream!

I added 2 tablespoons melted creamy peanut butter to the pudding mix. I also substituted the chocolate chips for equal parts, Reese chips, semi sweet chips and milk chocolate chips…to die for!
Thanks for the recipe. This is my go to dessert often, it is so easy and soooo good!
Holly says
OMG!! that sounds absolutely incredible, especially as a peanut butter lover 🙂 thank you, I’m totally gonna make it like this.
Lisa Meyer says
Hi Holly, with regards to your Crock pot chocolate lave cake, I don’t have a crock pot, can I do this in an oven? What size dish do you suggest I use and the temperature of the oven to achieve the same results.
Holly says
Hey Lisa! yes I absolutely think you can, I recommend using a dutch oven or large casserole dish with a lid, placing the oven on 200-250 degrees Fahrenheit and cooking for 2-3 hours (but I recommend checking periodically). I have not cooked a crockpot dish in an oven before, but I think this should replicate what a crock pot does 🙂 Thanks! Let me know how it turns out.
