Tip
One of my all time favorite cakes.
A delightful texture and combination of flavours.
Feel free to substitute for all macadamias. I choose a mixture since macadamias are pretty expensive and it doing a blend seems to make no difference to the flavour 👍
Keeps well.

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 cake was lovely and soft, however I added the juice of a whole lime to cake batter, for flavour and to loosen the stiff batter. Worked a treat.
Its delicious 😋
