Ingredients

Cake Mix

• 1 cup flour
• 1/4 Sugar
• 1/2 cup Brown sugar
• 3 tablespoon Cocoa
• 2 teaspoon Baking powder
• Salt
• 1/2 cup Milk
• 3 tablespoon Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Batter Mix

• 3/4 cup Brown sugar
• 2 tablespoon Cocoa
• 1-3/4 cups Hot water

Directions

1. Spray the pot in your slow cooker with some cooking spray (similar to the 1 cal frying spray)
2. In a large mixing bowl, add the flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, sugar, 3 tablespoons cocoa, baking powder and a dash of salt and stir well.
3. Gradually add the milk, cooking oil and vanilla, stirring all the time to combine well.
4. Pour this mixture into your slow cooker.
5. In another bowl, add 3/4 cups brown sugar and 2 tablespoons cocoa.
6. Add enough hot water to mix these ingredients together until smooth.
7. Pour this batter over the top of your cake mix – but do not stir it in.
8. Cover and cook on high for 1:45 to 2 hours.
9. Check with a skewer after 1:30, insering it into the centre of your cake – when it comes out nearly clean, remove the pot from your slow cooker and leave to rest.

Don’t leave it until the skewer comes out completely clean – there is a lot of residual heat in the pot that will complete the cooking process.
