What You’ll Need for the Pudding

6 oz Pitted Dates, Chopped

1 cup Water

1 tsp Baking Soda

1 1/4 cups Flour

1 tsp Baking Powder

4 tbsp Butter, Softened

3/4 cup Sugar

2 Eggs

1 tsp Vanilla

And the Toffee Sauce

2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream

1/2 cup Brown Sugar

1 1/2 tbsp Maple Syrup

1 tbsp + 1/2 tsp Molasses

Pinch of Salt

How to Make Sticky Toffee Pudding

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 8 1/2 inch soufflé dish with non-stick spray.

Make the toffee sauce by combining 2 cups heavy whipping cream, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1 1/2 tbsp maple syrup, 1 tbsp + 1/2 tsp molasses, and a pinch of salt in a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Stir frequently while bringing to a boil.

Lower the heat, while continuing to stir for about 5 minutes, until the sauce thickens. Pour half of the sauce into the prepared pan and place into the freezer. Reserve other half of sauce for serving.

To make the pudding, heat 6 oz pitted and chopped dates with 1 cup water over medium heat. Once the water starts to boil, remove from the heat and stir in 1 tsp baking soda. Set aside, but keep warm.

In a small bowl, whisk together 1 1/4 cups flour and 1 tsp baking powder.

In a separate large bowl, beat together 4 tbsp softened butter and 3/4 cup sugar until fluffy. Gradually beat in 2 eggs and 1 tsp vanilla.

Stir in half the flour mixture, then the date mixture, then add remaining flour mixture and beat until just combined.

Pour batter over the cold caramel mixture evenly in the prepared pan and bake for 50 minutes.

Let cool slightly, but serve while warm. Pour additional toffee sauce over each slice. Serve ice cream or whipped cream as well, if desired.
