With a lovely cake like that, how can you not win. It is very nice.  I didn't ice it as we try to cut down on our sugar . I really love the strong flavour in it. DD said it had a 'gutsy' lemon flavour.

cookie, it is a nice cake isn't it, my kids love it.

Congratulations Karen for winning the Monthly Mouthful competition.  Have fun choosing your book

[brazen20au]

did i win?? yippee!!!! how exciting!!

i wonder if i'm allowed to wait for the meat one? 

[judydawn]

Tenina said she was only halfway through it so you might be waiting a long time   You've probably got all the rest so maybe you will have to wait though.

From the website:

"Now in order to make the most of this Budget Busters booklet, we would like to run a little Round Up on here...a Round Up, in blog terms, is a collection of recipes, thoughts or ideas that are posted as they come in and all on a singular topic...SO, dear reader (s)! We are looking for fabulous tips, hints, recipes, ideas and ways to save more money using your Thermomix. If you have saved money with your TM up until now, we want to know how! If you have saved money using the very exciting Budget Busters Book, we want to know on what...you get the idea?

At the end of the Round Up, we will send the best 'tippee' (as voted by a completely biased Thermomix office panel!!) a beautiful box of organic fruits, vegetables and other goodies to the value of $100! Hows that for a saving?
So keep those Thermomixes humming away and send us your ideas. They will be edited and posted here over the next couple of weeks. We look forward to hearing from you at recipes@thermomix.com.au Don't be shy now!"

Ive just purchased the Budget Busters booklet, there are some nice recipes and lots of great money saving tips in there!

Im still waiting for my order to come! cant wait to see what is in Nico's booklet either.

Riv Mum, Nico's booklet is really good, I can recommend lots out of there.

I sort of made the Caramel Chomeur from the Thermomix site with lots of alterations and it was great. I used water instead of milk for the sauce, reducing the brown sugar to 180g and left the butter out. Then when I was making the batter I added 1/2 cup sultanas at the end of the mixing and gave it reverse  for 5 seconds on speed 2. This made it into a brown sugar pudding we had as kids. I guess I could email Tenina the changes I made so there will be 2 recipes for one. Do you think that would be ok?

[judydawn]

Nice going Cookie1.  I've noted your changes on my print-out so that I have 2 for the price of 1 recipes    I don't know where I was when our mums were making this type of dessert - maybe my Mum didn't do those sorts of things
