Slow Cooker Cake Ingredients:

Pumpkin Cake:

• 1 package (2-layer size) yellow cake mix
• 1 can (15 ounces) pumpkin
• 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, melted
• 1/4 cup milk
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons McCormick Pumpkin Pie Spice
• 1 cup chocolate chips

Caramel Sauce:

• 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
• 1 teaspoon McCormick Pure Vanilla Extract
• 1/2 teaspoon McCormick Pumpkin Pie Spice

Directions:

Spray inside of 6-quart slow cooker with no stick cooking spray. For the Cake, mix all ingredients in large bowl. Pour into greased slow cooker. Place towel over slow cooker and cover with lid.
