Why Make German Chocolate Cake in a Slow Cooker?
Using a slow cooker for a cake might sound unconventional, but it’s an absolute dream. Here are a few reasons why I love making German Chocolate Cake this way:
- Hands-Off Cooking: No need to babysit the oven. Just mix the ingredients, set the slow cooker, and let it do all the work.
- Super Moist Cake: The slow cooker creates a steamy environment that helps the cake stay moist and tender—no dry cake here!
- Effortless Cleanup: The slow cooker does the baking, and all you need to do is wipe down the insert. It’s a win-win!
