Tip
1. If not a fan of lime substitute this for the juice of the lemon used for the cake batter.
2. These produce a light fluffy cake that rises quite alot during baking.
3. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts or pecans after icing or add them to the cake batter for a bit of crunch if desired.
4. You could make 12 larger cakes in a texas muffin pan if desired. Adjust baking times to suit.

Recipe is created forTM 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!

Comments
Cupcakes were ok...mine didn't turn out as dark as yours but that could be the brown sugar I used. The icing was very soft and didn't pipe nicely. Probably won't be using this recipe again
