Cake Base
- 15.25 oz. Devil’s food cake mix
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
Toppings
- 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
- ½ cup caramel topping, plus extra for drizzling
- 8 oz Cool Whip, thawed
- 3 Heath bars (4.2 ounces), chopped
- Chocolate sauce, for drizzling
- Caramel sauce, for drizzling
- Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, blend together the devil’s food cake mix, eggs, water, and melted butter until the batter is smooth and well combined, ensuring no lumps.
- Prepare the slow cooker: Spray the inside of your slow cooker with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Pour the cake batter into the slow cooker and smooth it out into an even layer.
- Cook the cake: Cover and cook on the high setting for 2 hours. Avoid opening the lid during cooking to maintain temperature and ensure the cake cooks evenly.
- Add toppings: Once the cake is cooked, use the end of a spoon to poke holes all over the cake’s surface. Pour the sweetened condensed milk evenly over the top, followed by ½ cup of caramel topping. Remove the slow cooker insert and allow it to cool.
- Chill the cake: When the bottom of the insert is cool to touch, place the whole slow cooker insert with the cake into the refrigerator. Chill for at least 2 hours or ideally overnight to let the flavors meld and the toppings set.
- Finish the dessert: After chilling, spread the thawed Cool Whip evenly over the cake surface. Sprinkle the chopped Heath bars on top. Finally, drizzle additional caramel and chocolate sauce over the cake for extra richness and decoration.
- Serve: Serve the cake by scooping generous portions out with a large spoon. Enjoy this delightfully gooey and indulgent dessert with friends and family!
Notes
- Be patient during the cooking time and refrain from lifting the slow cooker lid to ensure even cooking.
- This cake is best served chilled to keep the texture creamy and the toppings intact.
- For a nut-free version, ensure the caramel topping and chocolate sauce you use contain no nuts.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator covered for up to 3 days.
- You can substitute Cool Whip with whipped cream if preferred.
