      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

Icing the cake....

Ensure cake is completely cool before icing.

* Ice the cake on the day it is to be eaten.

* You may like to use a spoon of melted chocolate to stick bottom layer of cake to cake board/plate to avoid it slipping.

* Place dollops of cream cheese on top of first layer, place second layer on top and ice sides and top if desired. Store in fridge until it is to eaten.

  • Please note, this recipe creates a textured cake,...

    Please note, this recipe creates a textured cake, which I quite like, but If you prefer a soft, smooth cake, you may prefer to use store brought rice flour rather than mill your own brown rice into flour.
