This month for the Crazy Cooking Challenge, we were challenged to find the ultimate chocolate cake recipe. Now — I am one for simplicity and yet I love making things homemade so I went looking for a cake that included both of those elements.

I just happened to need a dessert the other night for dinner and I was craving chocolate so I knew it would be a perfect time to make my recipe. I found exactly what I was looking for at Life as a Lofthouse. Chocolate. Crockpot. Lava — nuff said, right?

This cake was absolutely to do die for! It was so moist and delicious and for the first time, there was no fussing over it. While I was busy working, my cake was cooking. No forgotten timer, no over cooking the cake. It just bakes away in the crockpot!

You. will. want. to. fix. this. cake.
