Tip
Great cake to use for a kid's party as can be cut into many pieces or can use it to shape into a number or other design.Can also pour cake mix into two or three smaller cake tins and freeze cakes until you need them. Reduce cooking time slightly for more than one cake.Thanks to Anna for sharing her Aunt's recipe with me

I used a swiss roll pan, 35x25x2.5 cm, just the right size. The runny mixture filled it to the top
I reduced the sugar to 400g, as we prefer less sweet foods.
To mill, I divided the sugar in 2x200 g batches.
It baked at 180C for 35 minutes
Thanks for a lovely recipe
What size tin is best?
This is the best chocolate cake I've made in the thermomix. All the family loved it. Thanks for the recipe
I love this cake! Beautiful and moist!
This recipe looks great but could you please confirm the sugar and cocoa quantities? It seems like a massive amount of sugar and little cocoa?
Could you please confirm if you use baking powder or bi carb soda? Thank you
What is the best icing for this cake and quantities?? Thanks
I've been making this exact cake for about 10 years, it's been my go to cake for everything (I found the recipe in my old country women's cookbook) but I've been too scared to try it in my thermie as I imagined it to be too large!! Soooo excited that you've posted this, tried it & it works perfectly!!! Soooo much easier now, heaps quicker & a lot less mess!!! Turned out the same as always, a beautifully moist chocolate cake that everyone loves!! Thanks
