There is simplicity in throwing in your ingredients and forgetting about them for the rest of the day, then having a delicious meal at your fingertips. But did you ever imagine that you can make really amazing desserts in there too? Neither did I until I started experimenting a few years back. Now I’m here to tell you that slow cooker desserts are the way to go! I’ve made so many fun things over the past years in my slow cooker—from cakes, to brownies, to mason jar treats, to melted chocolate. If you name your favorite dessert, there’s probably an easy way to make it in your slow cooker.
Here are my favorite tried and true recipes for over-the-top delicious desserts you can make in a slow cooker. Check them out in the slideshow.
