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!

This is a great recipe, thanks
Hi, I used an almond nut butter as my daughter is allergic to peanuts. This was an easy and tasty treat to make. Thanks.
Thank you, great recipe.
I don't like peanut butter so used Tahini spread instead. Worked great!
I also soaked the dates for a couple of minutes first and was not crumbly.
Will definitely make again.
Didn't have cacao powder added nibs! Really nice & crunchy, thanks
Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe.
It was absolutely a hit in our family.
I did add extra Vanilla & some rice syrup to make it moister to roll the coconut into.
Added some rice malt syrup to help bind was bit crumbly
Did double portion
Added a bit of extra warm water and coconut sugar
