Sprinkle reserved swirl packet on top of your batter
Using a spatula, swirl in the packet
Put 2-4 paper towels under the lid of your crock pot, cover and cook on high for 1 1/2-2 hours
About 30 minutes before your cake is done, mix together your brown sugar, cinnamon and flour and sprinkle on top
Cook the remaining 30 minutes uncovered
Notes
While this batter would fit in a 4-quart crock pot, use a 6-quart crock pot. I tried it in a 4-quart and the sides burnt before the center was done since this is such a thick batter.
You can decide how much cinnamon you want in the topping. We love cinnamon, so we like it more on the 2 tablespoon side, but it is completely up to you.
The paper towels under the lid keep the condensation that gathers on the lid from dripping down on your cake.
After you swirl in the swirl packet, your cake is going to look all crazy. Don't worry. That is normal, and the end product is delicious!
