Slow Cooker Chocolate Lava Cake

Step 1

Coat a 3 1/2- to 4-quart slow cooker with cooking spray; set aside.

Step 2

Whisk the flour, granulated sugar, 2/3 cup of the cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and espresso powder together in a large bowl. Add the egg, egg yolk, milk, oil, and vanilla and stir until combined. Pour the batter into the slow cooker. Sprinkle the remaining 1/3 cup cocoa powder and the brown sugar over the top of the batter. Scatter the chopped chocolate evenly over the top. Pour in the water, but do not stir.

Step 3

Cover and cook on the LOW setting until the cake pulls away from the edge and the center of the cake wobbles slightly, 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours. You will see some bubbling around the edges. Spoon into serving dishes, dust with powdered sugar, and serve with fresh berries and vanilla ice cream.
