I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
- 1. Preheat the oven to 170 degrees C. Generously grease three 20cm cake pans with non-stick spray or butter, and line sides and base with baking paper[img title="" height="1" width="1"]https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=yinmomyangmom-20&l=ur2&o=1[/img].
2. Place the sugar, flours, cocoa, baking powder and baking soda into mixing bowl and mix on speed 5 for 5 seconds. Cut the butter into small pieces and add it to the dry ingredients. Mix on speed 5 for 30 sec to a minute or until the mixture resembles damp sand. Add the eggs, greek yogurt and vanilla and mix for 30 seconds. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl with a silicone spatula. Mix on speed 5 for about 60 to 90 seconds, to aerate the batter and strengthen the cake's structure.
3. Divide the batter evenly between the three prepared pans, and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the thickest part of the cake comes out clean or with one or two moist crumbs.

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!
