12 Desserts You Can Make in a Slow Cooker

By Southern Living

Dessert from a slow cooker? You betcha. Slow cookers aren't just for savory dinner dishes. You can make decadent sweets that rival those from an oven any day. Once you enjoy a sweet dessert from your slow cooker, you will never want to use the oven to bake again. The best part: Start the dessert before the main meal; it will be finished when you are ready for it. It is also the perfect solution for keeping desserts warm until you are ready to serve it after dinner. You may already use your slow cooker for fondue, but it is also great for much more, including cobblers, puddings, Apple and Pear Crisp, and even cakes. With recipes this easy, you will want to make an after-dinner dessert every night of the week.
