Why you’ll love this recipe
⭐️ Slow cooker frees your time and oven ⭐️ Chocolatey Easter deliciousness ⭐️ Seasonal, celebratory, a bit special Just like Christmas, Easter is a time for gathering and celebrating with loved ones over the dinner table – so that means we need a few shortcuts so us cooks can enjoy ourselves too. I wanted to use Mini Eggs for this Easter pudding because they’re my favourite. They’re also firm and crunchy, which is a nice contrast with the gooey sponge. They look spring-like and colourful too, so in keeping with the time of year!

Similarly, it might seem like it’s too watery when it’s cooked initially, but it will start to firm up as it cools down. You will need to keep an eye on it to tell when it’s ready – make sure you don’t over cook it. If your slow cooker is the ceramic type (that is, NOT non-stick) I would recommend lining it with baking paper before cooking this cake. Just squash a large sheet into the shape of the cooker (so there are no gaps for the sauce to escape). There will be no need to use the butter to grease it in this case.
