Equipment

- Mixing bowl
Ingredients
For the cake:
- 130 g plain flour
- 150 g white sugar
- 3 tbsp cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp baking powder
- 1/4 tbsp salt
- 125 ml milk
- 75 g butter
- 2 tsp vanilla essence
For the topping:
- 100 g caster sugar
- 100 g soft brown sugar
- 25 g cocoa powder
- 350 ml hot water
To serve:
- Ice cream or custard
Method
- To make the cake, combine the dry ingredients in a bowl, then make a well in the centre.
- Add the milk, butter and vanilla essence to the well, and whisk until smooth.
- Pour the batter into the slow cooker.
- To make the topping, mix the sugars and cocoa powder together in a bowl and sprinkle evenly over the top of the cake batter.
- Pour the hot water evenly over the mix – and don’t stir! I know it doesn’t make sense, I know you’ll want to, but trust me, don’t stir!
- Put the lid on and cook on high for about four hours. Serve straight out of the slow cooker with ice cream or custard.
