I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty impatient when dessert’s involved. The wait for these slow cooker cakes?
Totally worth it. Here are my 23 favorite fuss free, dump and go cakes that taste like pure heaven.
1. Crockpot Vanilla Sour Cream Cake
You can’t go wrong with a classic vanilla sour cream cake. The sour cream adds the perfect hint of tanginess and lots of moisture.
In general, sour cream cakes are seriously decadent. And this Crockpot version is no different.
2. Crockpot Blueberry Snack Cake
This simple cake tastes like the embodiment of summer. Every bite is light and fresh and bursting with juicy blueberries!
Since it’s made in the Crockpot, you don’t have to use your oven. So, you can keep your house nice and cool. (P.S. This is true of all slow cooker cakes.)
3. Crockpot Apple Pudding Cake
Clearly, pudding cakes are delicious, or I wouldn’t have added so many to this list. And this apple one is no different. If you love autumn apple desserts, give this one a try!
4. Slow Cooker Sticky Caramel Pumpkin Cake
The ooey-gooey factor of this cake is off the charts. It’s so sticky and delicious.
You’ll love it! Obviously, pumpkin desserts are wonderful.
For me, pumpkin cake is the cream of the crop. It’s moist and tender and delightfully dense.
5. Slow Cooker Key Lime Cake
I’m a low-key Key lime fiend. I tend to forget about Key lime desserts, but when I remember again, I’m obsessed.
And so the cycle continues, starting with this key lime cake. If Key lime pie is your favorite pie, you’ll love this cake.
It features all of the same citrusy goodness but in cake form. The cake is zesty and lime-flavored in the best way possible.
6. Slow Cooker Pineapple Upside-Down Cake
Pineapple upside down cake has always been a top favorite for me. It gets that perfect balance between deep, caramelized sweetness and bright, tropical fruitiness.
The one downside? It can be a little fussy to make. Not anymore.
7. Slow Cooker Banana Nut Cake
Is banana bread your favorite bread? Are banana bars your favorite bars?
And is a banana nut muffin your idea of a perfect muffin? Then, you will go bananas for this slow cooker cake! It’s like all your favorite treats in one.
8. Crockpot Better Than Sex Cake
Okay, I’m just going to come right out and say it: this cake absolutely lives up to its bold name. Each bite is pure bliss, a total taste explosion.
This cake will seriously shake up your dessert game. It’s layered with moist chocolate cake, a silky caramel ribbon, and creamy Cool Whip.
9. Crockpot Chocolate Caramel Cake
I think there are two main camps when it comes to pairing chocolate: the peanut butter camp and the caramel camp. I think both are divine, but chocolate caramel always wins for me.
And though this cake may not be the most visually appealing, its flavor is delectable! And that’s good enough for me.
10. Slow Cooker Red Velvet Cake
This is the perfect way to treat the red velvet cake lovers in your life. Because slow cooker red velvet cake might be the best version out there.
Red velvet has a tendency to be quite dry. And that’s just not the case with the slow cooker.
11. Slow Cooker Strawberry Dump Cake
Remember that cherry dump cake a few recipes back? This is its strawberry sister!
Just as wonderful and just as easy. You only need three things: a box of white cake mix, strawberry pie filling, and butter. Dump everything in, let the slow cooker work its magic, and about three hours later you’ve got a delicious dessert.
12. Crockpot Pumpkin Spice Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting
If you happen to love pumpkin spice lattes, you’re in for a treat. Because like the drink, this cake is practically the epitome of fall.
It is absolutely loaded with pumpkin and pumpkin spice. It’s moist and tender, and just plain delicious. And the cream cheese frosting adds the perfect amount of tangy goodness.
13. Slow Cooker Chocolate Pudding Cake
This dessert sits right in that magical in between space of pudding and cake. It’s too tender to be called a traditional cake, and not quite gooey enough to call it pudding. Honestly, I’d say it’s closest to a British pudding.
14. Slow Cooker Pineapple Coconut Spoon Cake
One bite of this spoon cake will whisk your taste buds to a tropical paradise. It’s almost like a hummingbird cake, but it doesn’t have the banana or the spices. You could totally add that, though.
15. Slow Cooker Lemon Cake
This light, citrusy lemon cake is the perfect way to ring in the warmer months. Or to brighten up the dreariness of the colder seasons.
This recipe features a dense lemon poppyseed cake with a tart citrus glaze. It’s delicious!
16. Crockpot Hot Fudge Sundae Cake
I have one word to describe this hot fudge sundae cake: irresistible. Okay, I have a few more words.
This cake is so fudgy and so delectable, you may have trouble controlling yourself. It’s crazy chocolatey, featuring both chocolate cake and molten chocolate fudge.
17. Slow Cooker Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting
Carrot cake is so underrated. I think it’s like the oatmeal cookie of the cake world.
When it’s done well, it’s one of the best things you’ll put in your mouth. And this slow cooker version is done really well!
18. Slow Cooker Chocolate Lava Cake
If you live for that moment when a spoonful of warm, gooey chocolate melts on your tongue, this slow cooker lava cake is everything. Made entirely from scratch, it delivers that genuine homemade taste without any fuss. I promise it’s as easy as it is decadent.
19. Slow Cooker Gingerbread Pudding Cake
This cake is what
20. Crockpot Cherry Dump Cake
Seriously, this might be one of the simplest cakes you’ll ever whip up. Just three things: a box of cake mix, cherry pie filling (a can or two), and butter. In the slow cooker, those humble ingredients magically transform into something magnificent.
21. Crockpot Coffee Cake
A sweet, cinnamon streusel coffee cake hits the spot every time. And this one requires minimal work, so it’s even better! Plus, it’s moist, delicate, and absolutely mouthwatering.
22. Crockpot Chocolate Root Beer Float Soda Cake
You only need root beer and cake mix to make this delicious dessert. The result tastes like an even more delicious root beer float. A scoop of ice cream is a must!
23. Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Chocolate Cake (Crockpot)
This one's for anyone who can't resist that peanut butter chocolate combo. I’m so excited to share this fabulous recipe. It’s like a lava cake got a peanut butter cup makeover.
