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!

Made this today as my Thermie friend suggested I bake it, she even gave me samples to try....did not disappoint. Recommend this recipe and thanks for sharing 🍪
Omg thank you and my stamps worked on these as well so tasty
Sorry for taking so long to commen! Did these Christmas Day with the Vanilla Icecream (Basic Cook Book). Cut them into stars. They looked and tasted great.
So in love with these
A lovely addition to my xmas staples. Make sure your pistachios are well chopped so that the biscuit rolls slice easily. Used rice flour and castor sugar and normal plain flour, as it was already in the pantry. I froze one roll and cooked when the others had all been eaten.
These are really delicious thanks for the recipe.
