      Recipe is created for
      TM 5
      If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
      For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Recipe's preparation

  1. Cakes

    To bowl add butter (100 grams), Sugar (115 grams), Vanilla bean paste or essence (1 teaspoon). Mix 30 seconds/speed 5. Scrape down sides and repeat.

    Add eggs. 10 seconds/speed 4

    Add S/R flour (160 grams), Cocoa (15 grams), 1/2 teaspoon bicarb soda, Milk (125 grams). 10 seconds/speed 4. Scrape down sides. 5 seconds/speed 3.

    Spoon into patty cases and bake at 180 degrees and bake at 180 degrees Celsius  for about 12 minutes - or until outsides of cupcakes are cooked and centres are still slightly soft.  Don't worry they will continue to cook once they are removed. 

    Slice Mars Bars into 2 cm slices and gently push a piece into the centre of each cupcake while the cakes are still hot and sitting in the baking tray. The mars bars will start to melt. After about 5 minutes move the cupcakes to a wire rack to cool. 

    When cakes are cool pipe icing and drizzle with cooled salted caramel sauce.
