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!

Any modifications for TM6?
Lovely recipe. 1st batch lasted just 24 hours. 2nd batch ready to go into oven now Will become a regular.
Loved these. Making for Christmas presents. Remove butterfly after whipping egg whites!
Do you have to change anything to do it in TM31
Delicious! cut a bit on the sugar 140 instead of 180, Thank you for sharing.
I also have made this 3 times now. I didnt remove the butterfly before adding almonds, lemon & honey the first time, and therefore the mixture didn't mix well at all. Maybe it is self-explanatory, but my subsequent attempts removing the butterfly before adding those was a lot more effective. Also, maybe my oven is grossly different, but I actually had to bake at 165 (regular, not fan forced) because 200 burnt them. Worth the while to persevere to get them right by the 3rd attempt, because they are awesome!
Yum used 100grams sugar and more lemon rind. 🙂
OMG, I halved the sugar and doubled the lemon and I have to say they are the best biscuits I've ever eaten!!!
Thankyou from myGF family!
This was so easy to make and so delicious. Crunchy outside and gooey centre. Definitely will make a million times over. Might try a little more lemon next time.
So delicoius!! Thanks xx
