This decadent Slow Cooker German Chocolate Spoon Cake is a delicious spin on German chocolate cake, this is served this warm with ice cream!
Hi all! I think you will love this Slow Cooker German Chocolate Spoon cake. This cake is warm, gooey, and full of standard German chocolate cake flavors, but I serve this warm with ice-cream. If you are like me and don’t turn your oven on in the summer, you will enjoy this recipe.
I start with a cake mix, but I dress it up a bit with butter instead of oil. I also add vanilla extract, and a dash of salt.

I pour the batter into a well greased slow cooker.
Then I top the batter with coconut, chocolate chunks, and pecans.
Cook on High for 1 hour and 45 minutes. Below is what it looks like after it is done cooking.
This cake isn’t the type that is cooled and sliced. You dig into it with a spoon, warm.
Top with ice cream. Best dessert I’ve had in a long time!
Below is the YouTube video of the making of this cake. You can follow me on YouTube here.

I put a crockpot liner in crockpot to save clean up time. I also put a couple of paper towels on top before lid to catch the water drops. Some crockpots get hotter on the edges so if your does put a piece of foil on that edge before putting in liner.
Made this today for a friend’s birthday at work. It was a hit! I’ll definitely be making it again. Thanks for sharing!
That is awesome. We love this cake too!
Anyone double it? How much longer does it need to cook?
