This Crock Pot Chocolate Cherry HeavenfromGooseberry Patch’sSlow-Cooker Christmas Favoritesis like a little piece of heaven! Seriously. It. Is. Amazing.
Aunt Lou here.
Everyone knows I am a sweets person. Michael, however, is not. We seriously went to a work function of mine once and instead of having a piece of the delicious desserts that were offered, Michael went up for another piece of brisket! He’s weird, but I think I’ll keep him. 😉
When I made up a bowl of this, I asked if he wanted some. He shrugged his shoulders and said he would just have a bite of mine. So I gave him a bite and got the patented “eyebrow raise and MMMMMMMMM” that means I had hit the jackpot with a recipe. Then I promptly walked into the other room before he tried to eat all of mine. He could get his own bowl!

Crock Pot Chocolate Cherry Heaven
This is one of those recipes that are just crazy easy to make. Ryder helped me cut the butter together with my pastry blenderand had a blast. We are in the “I wanna do it by myself” phase (jealous aren’t ya!), so I got it started and let him finish it up (with close supervision). Even with the “help” of a two-year-old, I had this ready to go in now time flat.

Slow Cooker Recommendation
For this little piece of heaven, I used myWest Bend 6-Quart Round Slow Cooker. I thought it might come out all pretty, but it is best just to scoop it up and not care about how pretty it is. I promise it doesn’t hurt the taste AT ALL!Your favorite 5-6 slow cooker will work great.

I'm wife to Michael (not Mikey 😉 ) and mom to Mr. Ryder and Miss Iyla. I'm just walking through this life step by step focusing on enjoying the little things in life. I am in awe of the many blessings big and small I receive daily from a pretty amazing God who calls me His own. Sometimes life is crazy and messy, but I am loving every minute of it.

I have some frozen strawberries. Would I need to cook them first or can I just thaw them and add some sugar to them?

Hi Carolyn,I haven’t tried this with strawberries. If I did, I would take the strawberries, put them in a skillet and make a rue so that it would better mimic the cherry pie filling. If you give a try, let me know how it turns out!

That sounds yummy, but I haven’t tried it. Let me know if you try it and how it goes!
Darlene Rhodes says
can this recipe be made with a different type of cherry? The cherry pie filling has the tart cherries and I prefer the sweet.
Thanks in advance for your helpReply
Aunt Lou says
Sure! You will have to make your own pie filling with your sweet cherries though. Enjoy!
