Stir to combine.<br /><br />Add liquid mixture to dry mixture, stirring to combine, to create a batter. Then, fold in nuts and chocolate chips.<br /><br />Spread batter evenly in slow cooker.<br /><br />In a bowl, mix together brown sugar and 1/4 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder. Add hot water (or coffee) and stir to melt sugar and create a slurry. Pour evenly on top of cake batter in the slow cooker.<br /><br />Cover slow cooker and turn on high, baking for about an hour and a half. Cake will be baked when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.<br /><br />Leave uncovered and allow to cool for about 30 minutes before serving*. If any more than 30-45 minutes before serving, re-heat for a few minutes as the sauce will thicken.<br /><br />Spoon cake into bowls. Hot fudge sauce will be under the cake on the bottom of the crock. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10361075668330834689noreply@blogger.com
