This cake is wonderful! I didn't have a devil's food cake mix, so I used a triple fudge cake mix. I also used instant vanilla pudding - I was going to call it Zebra cake. However, there was no evidence of the vanilla pudding when I served it - everything looked chocolatey. Definitely will make this again!

I served this dessert for a holiday luncheon I hosted and it was a great hit with all my friends. Several asked for the recipe. Best served warm right out of the slow cooker but is also good later as a leftover heated up in the microwave. I served it with a dollop of whipped topping.

Delicious! Easy to make! We served ice cream and chocolate sauce with it. Adding raspberries next time!

So easy to make, it was great! I had a bigger crock pot so the cook time was much less. All comments from guests said that Ice Cream is a Must with this cake!

This Lava cake is amazing! Easy and delicious! I have made a pudding cake just like it from scratch ... this tastes just as good with half the prep time. This cake tastes best eaten immediately, although it is still good heated up.
