How to Make Slow Cooker Better than Sex Cake

Combining the cake mix ingredients in a bowl with a whisk.

Step 1 – First, get out a large mixing bowl. Add the cake mix, water, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract and ½ of the sweetened condensed milk together. Make sure everything is well combined.

Cake mix batter poured into the slow cooker and topped with chocolate chips.

Step 2 – Spray a crock pot with a non-stick cooking spray. You can also use crockpot liners if you prefer. It really helps with cleanup. Pour the batter into the crock pot. Once all of the batter is in the crock pot, top with the chocolate chips.

Step 3 – Let this cook for 2 to 3 hours on high. I would check the cake after 2 hours since cooking times vary with each crock pot.

Poking holes in the cake in the crock pot.

Step 4 – As soon as the cake has finished baking, poke holes all over the cake with the handle end of a wooden spoon. Make sure to poke holes all over so the liquid you will pour will get into every bite of cake.

Pouring sweetened condensed milk over the cake in the crockpot.

Step 5 – Now, pour the remaining sweetened condensed milk all over the top of the cake. Spread it out so it can soak into the cake.

Pouring caramel sauce over the sweetened condensed milk and cake in the crockpot.

Step 6 – Pour the caramel sauce all over the top of the cake and spread it out.

Spreading whipped cream over the cake in the crockpot.

Step 7 – Finally, remove the crock pot insert from the crock pot so that it can cool at room temperature. Once it is cool, move it to the refrigerator so it can chill for at least 30 minutes. Top with the cool whip.

Ready to serve cake in the crockpot.

Step 8 – Add chopped up heath bars and Enjoy! This cake is the best and super easy.

What crock pot should I use?

Any type of slow cooker will work. You can use aregular one and it will turn out amazing.

We have a casserole style crock pot and I like to use that sometimes. This style will provide a nice even layer more similar to traditional cakes that you would bake in a 9×13 pan.

How to store leftovers?

Leftovers should be stored in the fridge covered. You can either place the crock pot lid on it and store it that way. If you prefer, you can put in another container to store. Just make sure it has a lid.

I doubt you have any leftovers though. We usually don’t! Everyone loves this cake so much and it normally gets devoured quickly.

More ideas:

  • Cake mix- You can substitute other types of cake mix for the Devil’s food cake mix. Try using chocolate or German chocolate cake mix. I think either of these would be yummy in this recipe.
  • Candy- This is a great way to use leftover candy and you can use other types besides Heath. Try using Butterfinger, Reese’s Cups, snickers, Hershey bars and more. Any of these would be great on the cake.
  • Ice cream- If you feeling decadent, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to the cake when serving.

    This was one of the best cakes I have ever had. Shared it with some friends, then sorry I did because there was only one leftover piece for me. I will be making it again and may not share at all.
