Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups (87 g) all-purpose flour
- ½ cup (110 g) packed dark brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons (14 g) cocoa powder
- ¾ cup (135 g) creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup (122 g) Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons (29 ml) canola oil
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) hot water
- ½ cup (90 g) semisweet chocolate chips (or peanut butter chips. I used chocolate)
Chocolate Syrup
- ¾ cup (144 g) granulated sugar
- 5 tablespoons (35 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 cups (473 ml) boiling water
- Ice Cream optional
Instructions
- Coat the inside of a 6-quart (6-L) slow cooker with cooking spray.
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder.
- In another bowl, combine the peanut butter, Greek yogurt, oil, vanilla extract and hot water.
- Mix together the contents of the two bowls and stir to combine (it will be thick like cookie dough).
- Fold in the chips.
- Spread the batter evenly on the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Whisk together the granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and boiling water until it's combined, and pour it over the top of the batter in the slow cooker.
- Place a cotton or paper towel between the slow cooker and the lid to absorb condensation. Cook on high for 1 1/2 hours or on low for 3 hours. The cake will begin to pull away from the sides of the cooker when it is done.
- Spoon the cake into a bowl and top with the sauce that formed on the bottom of the cooker. For an extra treat, top the cake with the ice cream before adding the sauce.
