1/2cupmilk (I used coconut milk beverage)

1-2/3cupshot water
Instructions
Ideal slow cooker size: 4-Quart.
Spray the inside of your slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
In a bowl, mix together the baking mix, 1/2 cup sugar, 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, milk and vanilla until well blended.
Pour the batter evenly into the slow cooker.
In a clean bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 up sugar, 1/3 cup cocoa powder and hot water until well blended.
Pour over the batter in the slow cooker.
DO NOT STIR!
Cover and cook on HIGH 2 to 3 hours, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake-y part comes out clean. (There will be a thick chocolate pudding-like sauce beneath the cake.)
Serve warm plain or with a little scoop of vanilla ice cream. Or squirt of whipped cream. Or a dusting of confectioners' sugar. Just be sure to adjust your Points accordingly.

But a cooking tip beside the recipe said that the batter would rise to the top and turn into cake. Underneath there would be a rich chocolate pudding.It worked! While not exactly "pudding," beneath the chocolate cake was a warm, satiny chocolate pudding-like sauce!Reduce the calories and WW Points for this chocolate pudding cake by substituting your favorite zero (0) calorie sweetener for the sugar.
