I've only had this baked in the oven. I want to give this a try as

soon as the weather cools a bit.

Thanks for reposting the recipe.

You have to have a special liner to make a baked recipe in your crock pot?

Uh oh I didn't know that.

That's the beauty of the crock pot, you can cook anything during the summer

months and

it doesn't heat up your dwelling place. I would like to try this recipe, but

I need to find

some crock pot " baking " pans. Does anyone have a brand or a place to find

them that they

would recommend?

Hi,

 

The pan that you use on the inside of a crock-pot

is called a Bake & Cake pan. They come in two sizes,

so be careful that the one you get will fit inside

of your crock-pot. You can find them sometimes on

eBay. You can also bake in a coffee can.
