Preparation

Step 1: Preparing the Fruits and Chocolate

Step 2: Creaming the Butter and Sugar

1. In the Thermomix bowl, add the softened butter and brown sugar. Mix on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until creamy and well combined.

Step 3: Adding the Eggs

Preparation time: 5 minutes

1. Crack the eggs into a separate bowl to ensure no shells get into the batter. Then, add them one at a time into the Thermomix bowl while mixing on low speed. Continue mixing until the eggs are fully incorporated.

Step 4: Mixing the Dry Ingredients

Preparation time: 5 minutes

1. In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Mix well.
2. Add the dry ingredient mixture into the Thermomix bowl while mixing on low speed. Gradually increase the speed until all the ingredients are fully combined.

Step 5: Incorporating the Milk and Vanilla Extract

Preparation time: 5 minutes

1. In a small bowl, mix the milk and vanilla extract together.
2. Slowly pour the milk mixture into the Thermomix bowl while mixing on low speed. Continue mixing until the batter is smooth and well blended.

Step 6: Adding the Fruits and Chocolate

Preparation time: 5 minutes

1. Add the chopped fruits and chocolate mixture into the Thermomix bowl. Mix on low speed just until the fruits and chocolate are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 7: Baking the Fruitcake

Preparation time: 1 hour 30 minutes

1. Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F).
2. Grease a round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
3. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8: Serving and Enjoying

Preparation time: 5 minutes

1. Once the fruitcake is fully baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes.
2. Transfer the fruitcake to a wire rack to cool completely.
3. Once cooled, slice the fruitcake into desired portions and serve. It is delicious on its own or can be enjoyed with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Now you have a sumptuous and moist fruitcake with chocolate made using Thermomix. Indulge in its rich flavors and enjoy a delightful dessert that will impress your family and friends. Happy baking!
