      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.

    Once set, cut into bars and store in an airtight container.

Tip

I melted butter for base and icing in my TM as follows: 

Base - 2.5min/100/Gentle stir setting

Icing - 1min/100/Gentle stir setting

To miss this step, you may prefer to melt your butter separately and add it to the dry ingredients as outlined above. 

I used Raw sugar and milled it 10sec/Speed 10. To miss this step you could use white sugar.  

I like a nice thick and creamy icing, if you like a thinner consistency, add more water (this is also good if you like leftover icing!)

When icing I always have a cup of hot water with my knife/spoon/spatula and add little by little, as required. This helps get the right consistency and also a nice smooth finish. Also helps prevent 'tearing' the base as I spread.

    Thanks Erin. You are quite right. It does need to be kept in the fridge. I've added that to the recipe now. Thanks for providing the feedback tmrc_emoticons.)
