Recipe's preparation

Fifteens

This is a traditional Northern Irish treat, adapted for the Thermomix. Uses 15 of each ingredient to make 15 slices.

1. Add 15 digestive biscuits to the mixing bowl

2. Mix for 10 seconds, speed 4, measuring cup on until biscuits are crumbed.

3. Add 15 large marshmallows, halved.

4. Add 15 glacé cherries, halved.

5. Mix for 60 seconds, speed 3, reverse on "Counter-clockwise operation" , and gradually add the condensed milk (MC off). The dough should be very moist but not too wet.

6. Mix for 20 seconds, speed 4 (MC on).

7. Pour the wet, sticky dough onto a flat surface and roll it into a large sausage shape.

8. Sprinkle a generous amount of desiccated coconut on a clean surface and roll the sausage shaped dough over it to coat.

9. Wrap the dough tightly in cling film, wrapping 2-3 times to secure.

10. Place in the fridge for 2-3 hours and remove, before cutting 15 slices.

Traditionally served chilled with a cup of tea.

Tip

Adjust the amount of condensed milk if you'd like a drier or wetter mixture.

Thermomix Model

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!
