    The best! I have a similar recipe that Mum used to make, so was handy to come across this one already converted to Thermomix! I made it to sell at school canteen and it was the most popular item for sale that morning! So moist, beautiful flavour and a lovely cake. I also used Tracey Purdey's chocolate icing which finished it off just nicely! Thanks for sharing!

    Definitely a moist cake and improved over a couple of days. My cocoa came to 35g, will add more next time for a more "chocolatey" flavour. Thanks for the recipe.

  • Was great to find that

    Submitted by KateHeatherB on 18. October 2015 - 20:56.

    Was great to find that someone had already converted this recipe successfully for TMX! My family has made this many times already!

    Today a made it Vegan by replacing butter with nuttelex, and replacing the two eggs with 2TBsp of ground chia seeds + 6TBsp (or 120mL) of water.

    Just in case anyone was interested, to replace one egg use 1TBsp of ground chia seeds and 3TBsp of water, mix together and then add to recipe!
