This Chocolate Pumpkin Cake is made entirely in a slow cooker… it’s the ultimate “dump” cake! You add all the ingredients, set, and forget it! Spice it up a bit more with my Homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice!

The true definition of a "dump" cake!

Let’s get really real for a second here… this cake is not the prettiest. But that, my friends, is possibly the only negative you will encounter. It is inexpensive, it is 4 ingredients, it is 2 minutes of your time to assemble, and it’s delicious. If we can get over the less-than-beautiful appearance, then we are gold!

So let’s break this down:

  1. Sounds interesting but I have a couple questions. First, do you mean pumpkin pie filling, where you would normally add just eggs and milk, or pumpkin puree which is plain pureed pumpkin?
    What size slow cooker? I assume a 4-qt. would work?
