Title: Help,cup cakes or slices
Post by: fundj&e on October 18, 2011, 10:17:48 pm

 :) Why not do ILB chocolate cake, or Apple tea cake are my favourites.

Baked cheese cake, chocolate slice.

Try and make cup cakes like Maddys.

I'd make a whole round cake for starters.
Brownies in the tm are a snap - melt butter and chocolate in the tm on 50 degrees, then add cold eggs from the fridge to cool down the mix, add the sugar, mix until combined well, then add the flour and mix until just done. If you make the brownies in big texas muffin sized cupcake papers, they look really good.
If you can't do maddy's cupcakes, then make mini muffins and sprinkle with coarse sugar before baking to give it a nice crust and sprinkle with icing sugar before serving.

Of course you can make cupcakes fundj!  Plonk batter in, cook, and slap on some icing.

Brownies good suggestion, or maybe Dede's chocolate crunch (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=6567.0)

Can't you just say "No" fundj  ???   Having said that, I'm sure you can come up with some successful goodies.  I've just made your delicious fruit cake  (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=6236.0).

Fundj with the choc crunch I find it good to put in the fridge for a while after cooling to stop it crumbling so much then take out of tin and cut

thermoheaven.

The cover $ 26.00
The rack $ 11.00
The s/s base $15.00, which you don’t really need, a big plate will do.

its only rockie road with violet crumble sprinkled on top while still warm
 
i only cook easy,fast and most of the time do not follow any recipes ,but i am getting better at taking notes since this wonderful forum  ;D

I sprinkled 100s and 1000s on fresh cream, not a good look after a few hours

They all melted into the cream :(, will this also happen if i sprinkle them on icing? 
Title: Re: Help,cup cakes or slices
Post by: Halex on October 28, 2011, 12:17:43 am
Fundji, they look great, even good flat surface for icing.

Well done.

I dont use sprinkles very often, little silver balls look great on white icing.
