I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
- Preheat oven to 180 degrees and grease and line a ring cake tin.
In a clean dry bowl, insert butterfly and add flour, sugar, salt and cocoa. Place lid on and sift for 10 sec/speed 2.
Add all remaining ingredients. To save getting a heap of ingredients on the underneath of your lid, follow this mixing guide:
10 secs/speed 1, then increase to
10 secs/speed 2, then increase to
40 secs/speed 4.
Scrape down sides and final mix for 10 secs/
"Counter-clockwise operation" /speed 4
Pour into prepared tin (I prefer ring tin, it cooks quicker without it drying out on the outside by the time it cooks through) and cook for 30-40 minutes or until it springs back when poked or a skewer comes out clean.
Let it cool on a rack and ice with choccie icing and sprinkle with coconut.
Tip
I grew up in a cholesterol conscious family of the 70's so mum always had margarine. This cake is lovely and light and I am yet to try it with butter, eventhough I bake with butter now, I know I get a perfect result everytime with marg...but you do you x

Recipe is created forTM 6
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. -

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!

Thank you for this! Came across by accident and I had all ingredients except I milled some raw sugar instead of caster, and I used butter ☺️. Whipped it up in no time, light n fluffy cake, I didn't ice as my son hates icing, perfect for school lunch! Cooked in a ringpan, 175 degrees fan forced for 30 mins 👌
If you need to whip up a cake in a hurry this is ideal. So quick and easy to make, super moist and really light. I iced it with a chocolate icing. Great for afternoon tea with a cuppa.
