Tip

The butterfly will be needed in step 2.

I initially used a lamington sized tin which is why my picture appears more like a slice than a cake.

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    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!

    The recipe worked for the most part, although I did need to bake for 20 mins longer before it was set. It was too eggy-tasting for me, but those who like that will probaby enjoy this cake. I reduced the sugar to 100g and still found it sweet. I enjoyed trying out something new but it's not quite to our family's taste. Thanks for a clear and easy to follow recipe.

    pr0nty:mine looks exactly like your's, it's in the oven now hope it turns out, also had to fold the egg whites in manually but also didn't realise the egg whites on the bottom of my bowl had turned into peaks so some raw egg white went into the cake mixture, but it turned out well tastes yummy and cooked it 15 mins longer

    pr0nty:when you have to incorporate whipped egg whites into a mixture, start with a third of the whites and mix with a whisk to start the process. Then add the rest and fold through with a spatula. This should give a better more evenly mixed result.

    This was great - i was a bit nervous after reading some of the reviews but all fine (and delicious!) in the end.

    However I did cook a further 20mins, and a speed for folding the egg whites  through wiuld have been good. I tried about 1 but that was ineffective, and 4 seemed a bit brutal. I ended up using spatula to do it manually but wasnt sure if i was meant to be getting rid of the clouds or not. In the end i mostly did and it turned out fine I think, so...?
