Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips instead of milk chocolate chips.
- If you don't have chocolate chips, you can use chopped chocolate bars or even unsweetened cocoa powder (just add an extra 1/4 cup of sugar).
- Feel free to add other mix-ins to your cake, such as chopped nuts, dried fruit, or even peanut butter.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
- If you're using a slow cooker with a removable insert, spray the insert with cooking spray before adding the batter. This will help prevent the cake from sticking.
- Cook the cake on low for 2-3 hours, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will help it set and make it easier to slice.
- Serve the cake with your favorite toppings, such as ice cream, whipped cream, or chocolate sauce.
