This dessert is one of my favorite ones for a crowd.  It’s easy to make and so yummy.  You’ll get rave reviews!

I was telling my sister-in-law about this cake recently.  I have several recipes for crock pot lava cake, both baked in an oven and for the crock pot.  But this one is definitely my favorite.  The cake is so moist, it has chocolate cake, chocolate pudding and chocolate chips in it, and it is so easy to make. I found it years ago in a Betty Crocker cookbook, but I also recently found it on their website.  So, I wanted to share it with you, too.

Get ready to wow your guests!
