Recipe's preparation

Cake topping

In a clean bowl:
Cook butter, water and cocoa powder:
4 minutes
90º
Speed 1

Add icing sugar
Mix:
30 seconds
Speed 2

Pour icing over hot cake as soon as it comes out of the oven

Tip

1. Preparing the topping about 5 minutes before the cake is due to come out of the oven will ensure that it is still hot and thus runny enough to be absorbed by the warm cake.
2. I pierce some holes on top of the cake to assist absorption of icing.
3. If you'd like to add additional toppings (lollies or sprinkles) do so as soon as you have poured the icing mixture over, so that the toppings stick to the cake.
4. Once baked and cooled down, this cake can be cut into portion sizes and frozen.

Thermomix Model

Recipe is created for
TM 6

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.

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.

Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
