Simple Thermomix Chocolate Cake Recipe

by 16 Comments

I know there are already a whole heap of Chocolate Cake recipes out there, but I promise you this Simple Thermomix Chocolate Cake Recipe really is the best.  It’s my Great Nan’s recipe (she would have turned 109 this year) and I’ve made it countless times over the years as it really takes no time at all to put together and a family favourite.

There are sooo many things that I love about this recipe, it’s easy to make, it’s versatile (it can be baked in practically any type/size cake tin), it’s easily doubled to make a larger cake, it’s freezer friendly (even when iced) but the main thing I love about it is that it’s a family recipe which has already been handed down through three generations and I love that I am passing it onto a new generation through my boys.

I like to make this simple Chocolate Cake using a slice tin as it goes further and cuts into smaller size pieces which is great for the kids.  I usually ice it with a basic chocolate icing (you can find the recipe here) but I also leave it un-iced sometimes (usually through laziness) and it’s still popular.

The BEST way to enjoy this cake however, is by cutting off a big end piece (the best slice!) while it’s still warm and alongside a glass of milk – yum!

Don’t worry if you don’t have a Thermomix, you can find the regular instructions for this Simple Chocolate Cake here – enjoy!
