Cathy Mitchell, the queen of dump cakes, visited Kathie Lee and Hoda in the Today Food kitchen with ideas for desserts made in a slow cooker. Her latest book is called Dump Meals, and you can try a couple of her ideas. Check out these options for Triple Chocolate Brownies and a slow-cooked Cherry Delight.

When Hoda Kotb tasted the brownies, she was speechless, which sounds like a rave review to me. Which of these desserts do you think sounds the most delicious?
