Shoofly Dough Ball Dessert Slow Cooker

Shoofly Dough Ball Dessert Slow Cooker. This easy slow cooker treat with just 5 simple things is my fun, quick take on old-time Amish molasses pie. Skip making pie crust. Just dump frozen dough balls in, pour sticky corn syrup on top, mix in three easy kitchen staples, and let your cooker handle it. The dough grows into soft bites that drink up yummy caramel syrup. Get all that shoofly taste with tiny work—great for fast nights, potlucks, or kid snacks after supper.

Serve it hot right from the pot with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream that melts into the sticky sauce. Grown-ups like it with hot coffee or tea to cut the sweet. Kids dig it with cold milk. It’s super rich, so use small bowls. Eat it after light food like salad and chicken for a warm family dessert everyone loves.

Servings: 8

Ingredients

• 1 bag (24 oz) frozen yeast roll dough balls (12-16 balls)

• 1 cup thick light corn syrup

• 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

• 1/2 cup butter, melted (no salt)

• 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Shoofly Dough Ball Dessert: Directions

1. Spray or butter a 4-6 quart slow cooker lightly so nothing sticks.

2. Lay frozen dough balls flat on the bottom. They can touch or squeeze close.

3. In a bowl, stir corn syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, and cinnamon until smooth and shiny.

4. Pour the thick mix slowly over the dough balls so each gets covered and syrup goes around them.

5. Put on the lid. Cook on low 2.5-3.5 hours till dough puffs big, is done inside, and syrup bubbles thick. Don’t peek for first 2 hours.

6. Turn off cooker. Let sit covered 10 minutes for syrup to get thicker.

7. Scoop warm dough and syrup into bowls. Add lots of sauce on top. Eat hot with toppings you like.
