How to Make Mississippi Mud Brownie in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
Dude. This Crock Pot Mississippi Mud Brownie is just as amazing as I remember Momma’s Mississippi Mud Cake when I was a kid. Man, it was my favorite dessert when I was little. There is a reason for that. It is beyond amazing!
So, this recipe is a “made from scratch” recipe. If you are new to cooking and/or baking, do not let that scare you. Made from scratch sounds super hard, but this recipe makes it as easy as following directions. The steps are not super hard. You can do this. If you are a seasoned cook or baker, you will take one look at this recipe and be delighted with how easy it is to put together a phenomenal dessert!
Like I said before, this recipe is one that I have loved since I was a kid. However, Momma always made it in the oven, and somehow she ended up with two crazy daughters that started a crock pot cooking website, so she helped me make this into a crock pot recipe. So, let us all give Momma a big ol’ thank you!
