Ingredients

1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, melted, plus more for greasing insert

1 1/2 cups sugar

2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

3 large eggs, lightly beaten

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Kosher salt

1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chunks

Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Directions

  1. Line the insert of a 4- or 6-quart slow cooker with a large piece of foil, then generously butter the foil.
  2. Whisk together the melted butter, sugar, cocoa powder, flour, eggs, vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Fold in the chocolate chunks. Scrape the batter out into the prepared insert in an even layer. Cover and cook on low for 3 hours; the cake should be set around the edges and gooey in the center.
  3. Serve the cake warm, scooped into a bowl and topped with ice cream.

I shave off a half hour, and it was still slightly overcooked at its edges. The foil: no thanks. Just use an oven recipe!
