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!

Made this for my husbands birthday... I found the recipe a bit odd with boiling some of the ingredients but once all cooked it was a lovely cake. We really enjoyed it. I would make it again.
Amazing recipe. I have been searching for a nice chocolate cake recipe, thankyou!
Wow what a cake, my son picked this to make. Very decadent!
I made this for my son's birthday and it was sensational! Loved the combination of chocolate, raspberries and cream.
Yummy. When I was doing the batter, I was thinking it tasted like it had too much flour, but after putting it all together & eating it, No, it was very yummy. Thank you for sharing.
