This heaven in a crock pot dessert combines fudge brownie mix and cookie dough mix together to make a decadent dessert in your slow cooker.
Have you ever made a dessert in the crock pot before? I have never done that and I wonder why I've waited this long to try it. My cake didn't take 3 hours like the cooking time suggested, it took only about 2. This dessert is pure heaven and reminds me of a trifle dessert that my husband used to eat all the time at Ruby Tuesday's.

What Slow Cookers or Crockpots are the Best?
One benefit of using a slow cooker is that it saves time and effort. You can add all of your ingredients to the pot, set the temperature, and let the slow cooker do the rest. Go to work and come home to a great meal!
When choosing a slow cooker think of the size of your family first. Do you have a large family of 6 or more? You probably want a larger crockpot that is 7 qt or more. For smaller families that are 4 or less choose a 4 qt slow cooker and just adjust the recipe ingredients in half. No need to change the cooking times.
It can cook simple basic food such as Crock Pot Potato Soup, 2 Ingredient Slow Cooker Salsa Chicken, Slow Cooker Beef Stew, and Slow Cooker Hawaiian Pulled Pork.

Hi Jenna,
Has anyone substituted peanut butter cookie dough for the chocolate chip? I'm giving your recipe serious thought.
Jenna says
That is a good question because I haven't made this in awhile. I would use the smaller because I think the larger size wouldn't be enough for the amount of butter and eggs the recipe calls.
Joan Hays says
Do you the small (makes 12) or the large (makes 24) of the chocolate chip cookie mix?
Smilie says
i've seen this yummy looking recipe a few times and have read that a lot of the reviews said theirs burnt. I want to try it but am worried it will burn. Have any of you tried using parchment paper? You line the inside of the crockpot then spray the paper with cooking spray. Not sure if this would stop the burning from happening? Thanks!
Lauren says
Would the cooking time be the same if i just did 2 batches of brownie mix instead of adding the cookie dough?
Jenna says
I would check it after an 1.5 hours to see if it's done.
Elena says
I am halving the recipe (I have one of those mini crock-pots). Would you expect that the baking time be cut in half as well? Thanks! Looking forward to trying it 🙂
Jenna says
I'm sorry yours burnt! Hope it turns out better next time. Everybody's slow cooker seems o be different.
Gracie says
I cooked mine on high for the time you said and it was burnt! Next time I am Cooking on low!!!!
Jenna says
I've never tried doubling the recipe before, but if you do you would have to adjust the cooking time.
