Step 1 -Line the bottom of a slow cooker with a ring of foil.

Step 2 -Spray the entirety of the slow cooker with nonstick spray.

Step 6 -Add the sugar to the chocolate mixture and stir to combine.

Step 7 -Stir the eggs and the vanilla into the chocolate mixture until it is smooth.

Step 8 -Add the flour mixture and the remaining chocolate chips into the chocolate mixture and stir until it is just combined, ensuring not to over mix.
