It's so easy to throw together a meal in your slow cooker, and lately, slow cooker desserts have become very popular. I've thrown a few ingredients into a bowl, mixed them up and dumped all into my slow cooker. The house smelled wonderful while this dessert was cooking, and it it only took 2 hours. The larger the slow cooker, the shorter the cook time.
Ingredients:
1 c all-purpose flour
1/2 c granulated sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 c peanut butter, creamy or chunky
1/2 c milk
2 T butter, room temperature
1 tsp vanilla
Topping:
1/2 c sugar
1/4 c unsweetened cocoa
1 c boiling water
1. In a medium-sized bowl combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add the peanut butter, milk, butter and vanilla. Stir until all ingredients are incorporated. Batter will be thick like cookie dough.
2. Grease the bottom and sides of a 4-quart slow cooker. Dump in the batter and spread evenly.
3. In the same bowl, stir together the topping ingredients and pour over the cake batter. DO NOT STIR.
4. Place lid on cooker and cook on high 2-3 hours or until a tester in the center comes out clean. This dessert makes its own fudge topping. So when you check it after 2 hours and the chocolate you poured in disappea
5. Serve warm from the cooker with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Refrigerate any leftovers.
Yield: 8 servings.
