I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
- 1. Add sugar, 4 seconds, speed 10. Add butter, chocolate, water, coffee and sugar melt at 5 min, 60 degrees speed 3 or until melted, then cool.
2. Add flour and cocoa, mix 20 sec speed 4
add eggs and mix 20 sec speed 4 until combined
3. Line 25 cm tin with foil on base (sunny side down), then baking paper on base and sides. Fill tin 3/4 full, may be some mixture to make into cupcakes. Can halve the mixture into two seperate cakes to later stack. Makes a huge batch.
4. Bake 180 degrees Celsius for about an hour and a half for large cake, approx 20 min for cupcakes or until cooked. I rotate my cakes every 20 min to ensure even cooking.
5. Leave in tin for 20min to cool slightly before turning onto a rack to cool completely before icing. - 1. Grate chocolate 6sec speed 8, scrape sides down.
2. Add cream and melt 3min 60 degrees speed 2 or until completely combined. Can scrape sides down halfway through if needed.
3. Cool to room temperature before spreading over cake.
4. Butterfly can be inserted if wanting a mousse consistency for ganache. Beat speed 4 watching throughhole for desired consistency. Be careful not to over beat.
Ganache
Tip
Be careful not to exceed max fill line, especially if using TM31. May need to be reduced or done in two batches .
Some of the water can be substituted for Baileys or Kahlua. It’s amazing!
Serve at room temperature.

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!

Made this for hubby's birthday cake in 2x 23cm tins for 1hour.
lovly and moist. Will make again.
I halved this recipe as I didn’t want a massive cake - delicious!
Highly recommend 👌
Delicious....
Perfection!
Jillheadon:what a great idea with the choc chips! Thanks Jill
very yummy! I made mine into a birthday cake and used buttercream icing. It made a HUGE batch which was great because I made cupcakes and just added some white chocolate chips (because I was too lazy to ice them)! Great recipe!
