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 was delicious! I made it for my mums birthday & added Nutmeg 2gms (1/4tsp), Cinnamon 3gms (1/2tsp) & Ginger Powder 2gms (1/4tsp) as well as 60gms White Chocolate in the icing. Loved by all & gobbled up.
Has anyone made this without the icing? Just wondering if it's as nice without it? Maybe a dusting of icing sugar instead on top???
This cooked up very nicely. I use GF Flour and the resul was very good. I doubled the icing, but it was too much by about a quarter.
This cake is absolutely delicious. Will definitely make this again and again. 😋
Definitely one of my top "go to" recipes. Very quick to prepare, & is always a no fail cake to bake. I bake mine in a spring lever tin for easy removal. Always a hit with family & friends. A++++++
This is by far the best carrot cake ever! So easy and is always a hit. I've lost count of how many I've made! Bloody yummo!
I made this for the first time as well and it was delicious. Could not fault it and so easy, I made it in a ring tin as my mum always said a ring tin does more even cooking, just my opinion. Would highly recommend and thank you so much for sharing this delicious cake.
Oh my! I made this for the first time today....it was bloody delicious!!! I can honestly say its probably one of my favourite cakes ever....and that icing...the bomb! Thank you so much for sharing!
