Ingredients

Scale

Cake Ingredients

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 cups water

Pudding Ingredients

  • 1 box instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 2 cups milk

Topping

  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crockpot: Spray the crockpot insert thoroughly with non-stick cooking spray to prevent the cake from sticking during cooking.
  2. Make the Cake Batter: In a large bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix with the eggs, oil, and water. Stir until smooth and well blended. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared crockpot.
  3. Prepare the Pudding: In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and milk until the mixture is fully blended and begins to thicken slightly.
  4. Layer the Pudding: Pour the chocolate pudding mixture gently over the cake batter in the crockpot, allowing it to spread evenly but do not mix together.
  5. Add Chocolate Chips: Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top of the pudding layer for added texture and chocolate flavor.
  6. Cook the Cake: Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on high for 2 to 3 hours. The cake is ready when the edges are fully set and springy to the touch, but the center remains molten and gooey.
  7. Serve Warm: Once done, let the cake sit for about 10 minutes before serving warm to enjoy the lava cake texture at its best.

Notes

  • Cooking times can vary depending on crockpot model; start checking around 2 hours.
  • Use good-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor.
  • For a dairy-free option, substitute milk with almond or coconut milk and use dairy-free pudding mix.
  • You can add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream when serving for an extra indulgence.
  • Do not stir after adding pudding and chocolate chips or the lava texture will be lost.
