- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
Toppings
- 1 cup chocolate chips

- Prepare the Batter: In a large bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, water, and vegetable oil. Stir until all ingredients are well mixed and a smooth batter forms.
- Pour into Crockpot: Pour the prepared batter evenly into the crockpot insert.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top of the batter inside the crockpot.
- Add Powdered Sugar: Lightly sprinkle the powdered sugar over the chocolate chips and batter.
- Cook the Cake: Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on the low setting for 3 hours to ensure the cake is cooked through and the chocolate melts into a lava center.
- Serve Warm: Once cooked, serve the lava cake warm. For extra indulgence, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side.
Notes
- Cooking time may vary depending on crockpot size and heat; check doneness after 2.5 hours if concerned.
- Use a non-stick crockpot liner or grease the crockpot to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
- Substitute chocolate chips with chunks or other types of chocolate for different textures and flavors.
- Optional toppings include whipped cream, fresh berries, or a drizzle of caramel sauce.
- Do not open the lid frequently during cooking to maintain temperature and moisture.
