With a larger crockpot, you’ll need to adjust the cooking time. I would probably make this cake for the first time when I was able to be home to watch it. Hope that helps!

That pumpkin caramel cake looks delicious and easy to make! I’m going to have to save that recipe and make it in the next couple weeks!
