      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

This is a fabulous easter cake. The mushrooms make it moist and just an extra way to add some hidden vegetable to a treat.

    I thought if I can get this past the fussiest eater in the house, I'll be very happy.
    I'm pleased to report, master 12 loved it!
    I used Cadbury dark melts which worked perfectly for me. It's a keeper, don't hesitate to make.
    Thanks for an awesome recipe with hidden veg.

  • Delicious! No one could guess

    Delicious! No one could guess the secret ingredient.  The consistency is a bit like a fudge cake.  I used a 200 g block of chocolate I had in the pantry and the cake came out fine.
