      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

Apparently this was a recipe from a very old Women's Weekly cookbook but I couldn't find which one to acknowledge. I used Carly Hill's Marshmallow Slice recipe to convert the base instructions, and The Basic Cookbook's advice on the buttercream preparation.
