- 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.
  
  Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

5. Add egg and vanilla and mix 10 sec/speed 4.
6. Scrape down sides of mixing bowl and add flour and baking powder.
7. Mix ingredients for 30 sec/speed 2 MC off, slowly adding liquid from date mixture into mixing bowl.
8. Add remaining date mixture and mix for 10 sec/speed 2/reverse "Counter-clockwise operation" (unless you like your dates chopped finely).
9. Transfer cake mixture into prepared cake tin and bake for 30 minutes.
10. Clean and dry mixing bowl.

Caramel Topping

Start preparing your caramel topping with approximately 10 minutes to go.

1. Add all ingredients into mixing bowl and cook 6 mins/110 degrees/speed 1.5 "Counter-clockwise operation" MC off (replace with simmering basket).
2. Once cake is cooked, pour topping on top and grill in the oven until lightly brown.
