Serves 6-8
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 eggs
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts (I left these out)
Grease the slow cooker insert with butter or vegetable oil. Cut a piece of waxed paper to fit the bottom and grease the waxed paper.
In a bowl, beat the butter, eggs, sugars, and vanilla together until light and fluffy. In a separate bowl, stir the flour, baking soda, and salt together. Stir the dry ingredients into the butter mixture. Stir in the chocolate chips and walnuts until well blended.
Spoon the dough evenly into the slow cooker and smooth the top. Cover and cook on low for about 3 hours, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Set the lid slightly ajar for the last 30 minutes.
Turn off the heat and remove the insert from the slow cooker. Allow to cool in the insert for 30 minutes. Invert onto a wire rack. Cut the cake in half lengthwise, then cut each piece crosswise into slices. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Review:
These were tasty and look at the shape. Perfect for a football party! Cover with chocolate frosting and use white frosting for the laces…wouldn’t that be so awesome? I’m going to do it for the Ohio State-Michigan game. These were more cakey than typical chocolate chip cookies. Watch the cooktime…mine got a little too done for my liking. 3 stars.
What size of slow cooker do you use for this recipe. I have tried a lot of your recipes and that is probably my only complaint, there are so many different sizes of slow cookers, but you don't usually say what size to use in your recipes.
