Slow Cooker Rich Chocolate Pudding

I’m not kidding with that title. This is rich RICH chocolate pudding.

If you’re not a rich chocolate person (like myself), it tastes even better cut with some whipped cream or marshmallow fluff.

If you ARE a rich chocolate person (starting to sound a little funny), then read on…

I love the idea of a warm beverage or dessert heating up in the crockpot. It’s a break from the traditional soups, stews, or even (the super boring) baked chicken. Let’s put something fun in the slow cooker, shall we?

Very simple ingredients. Which is probably why it is so intensely chocolately. Homemade chocolate pudding is less of the sugar and more straight-up chocolate flavor. It’s in a completely different category than pudding cups  or even ready-mix puddings. Trust me.

See how thick? Don’t you just want to dive in?

Toss a few ingredients in the crockpot and watch it become your new favorite dessert. Add a scoop of ice cream or a brownie for extra credit.

    3. Do you know if this could be doubled or even tripled? Large family who loves choc. pudding. Also, instead of serving warm can it be refrigerated and still taste good?
