Today we’re sharing this delicious and chocolatey cake for the holiday season, and this isn’t just and old fashioned chocolate cake recipe. It’s extra special because it’s made in our Crock-Pot® Slow Cooker! It’s simple to show off while entertaining with our Crock-Pot® Swing and Serve™ Slow Cooker.

We made our Easy Chocolate Cake Recipe in the larger crock, and in the smaller ones we put in our strawberries with strawberry syrup and ganache!

You guys, SLOW COOKER GANACHE!

It’s all completely homemade, and it’s all made from scratch, yes, we even make our chocolate cake recipe from scratch. No boxes here for this holiday recipe and it’s still super easy.

You don’t need to do anything, but adjust the temperatures and add in chocolate chips and cornstarch midway. We even created a video to show you how easy it is to make this from start to finish. If you don’t like strawberries you could easily do raspberries or even cherries, yum!

We had SO much fun making this recipe in our new Crock-Pot® Swing and Serve™ Slow Cooker; it’s ideal for entertaining or everyday family meals. From side dishes, full meals, and especially dessert – you can free up your counter space and set it and forget it. The bottom crock is 3.5 quarts, and the two top are 1.5 quarts.

We just love how they easily swing out of the way and then back nestle back to the compact position. There’s even a caddy in the back to put your utensils for serving. The two top crocks have a hinged lid, and the bottom has a regular removable one.
