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.

Tip
To sweeten coconut cream, you can use maple syrup, honey (not vegan), or coconut nectar. I used the nectar part of Organic Coconut Spread. Add it to the coconut cream then whip. Put the cream in the fridge and it will thicken up to dollop consistency.

Hey. No I don't know. It
Hey. No I don't know. It never lasts long enough in my house to freeze as it gets gobbled up pretty quick. It is a dense cake and I am meaning to substitute the chia with ground linseed for a slightly lighter alternative. Let me know if you do freeze it! xx
