kcalIngredients
1 cup water
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup milk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
½ teaspoon vanilla
½ cup coarsely crushed malted milk balls
½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
½ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup malted milk powder
1 cup boiling water
Vanilla ice cream (optional)
Directions
- Spray a 6- or 7-inch (1½-quart) soufflé dish or round baking dish that fits inside your Crockpot Express Pressure Cooker with nonstick cooking spray. Prepare a foil sling by folding an 18-inch long piece of foil in half lengthwise to create an 18×6-inch strip, and place it underneath the dish to use as handles later. Add 1 cup of water to the Cooking Pot and place the rack inside.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Add the milk, melted butter, vegetable oil, and vanilla, stirring until the mixture is smooth. Gently stir in the coarsely crushed malted milk balls and semisweet chocolate chips. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared dish.
- In another medium bowl, combine the granulated sugar and malted milk powder. Stir in 1 cup of boiling water until fully dissolved. Pour this mixture evenly over the batter in the dish—do not stir. Cover the dish tightly with foil.
- Lower the dish into the Cooking Pot using the foil sling handles. Secure the lid on the pressure cooker. Select the DESSERT setting, set the pressure to HIGH, and adjust the time to 37 minutes. Ensure the Steam Release Valve is in the “Seal” (closed) position, then press START/STOP.
- Once cooking is complete, allow the pressure to release naturally for 5 minutes, then release any remaining pressure manually. Carefully remove the dish from the Cooking Pot using the foil handles.
- Remove the foil cover and let the cake stand for 10 minutes to cool slightly. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
