Recipe's preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 160°C (fan assist). Butter and line a 23 x 33cm (9 x 13in) roasting-tin with baking parchment so that it hangs over by a couple of cm.

     

    Combine the flour, bicarbonate of soda, spices and salt in Closed lid"Closed lid" , 10 seconds, speed 4 then set aside.

     

    Combine the butter, treacle, honey, brown sugar and 120ml milk in Closed lid"Closed lid"  for 5 mins -  70 degrees-  speed 3-4 until the butter is melted and the sugar dissolved. Allow to cool.

     

     When you can comfortably dip a finger into the mixture, add the eggs to it, one at a time through the lid at Closed lid"Closed lid" speed 4.

     

     Once the mixture is smooth and satiny add the dry ingredients and the grated ginger, mix for 15 seconds , speed 4.

     

    Pour into the prepared tin and bake for 45 minutes. The top should spring back when touched and an inserted skewer should come out with moist crumbs. Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes before glazing.

     

    In Closed lid"Closed lid" combine the milk, whiskey and icing sugar 4 seconds, speed 3. Spoon the icing over the still-warm cake – it will become more dense and sticky as it cools.

    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!

    This cake was super delicious. A little bit more time consuming to make having to mix flours, then take out of bowl and set aside, and also wait for liquid moisture to cool down before adding the eggs. However, the finished product was beautiful, rich and moist and made a large cake. I'll make this again.
