Why not make dessert in your slow cooker? It is easy and almost impossible to "flop.
" So, I have been experimenting a little and came up with a few tips to help you.
Tips for dessert in the low cooker:

• Dessert that you would normally boil on top of the stove works very well
• You have to add the liquid for the sauce to the pot and leave it on for at least 30 minutes to make sure it is hot
• Desserts cook surprisingly fast and you should not let it cook for more than double the time of the normal recipe before you check it.
  
• Go slow on spices such as ginger and cinnamon as they tend to be overpowering in a slow cooker dessert
• Use only about 3/4 of the water you would normally have used as none boils off
• If you have to add any butter to the liquid it is best to melt the butter first
• Remember that sugar can cool down your liquid a lot so make sure you add it from the start, when you start heating your liquid
• Do not open your pot too soon as it may cause the dessert to fall flat like a cake in an oven that has been opened too soon.
  

Apart from these changes you can basically make any cooked or baked dessert in a slow cooker.
You may have to experiment a little with your favorite dessert recipe, but it is well worth the effort.
I find that if I do the dessert like this it allows me to give all my attention to the rest of the meal.
