A popular British pudding, which we would call a dessert. In this case, a cake.

I believe I got this from one of Sam Holland's cooking videos. He is a huge fan of and representative for Hex-Clad.


Ingredients

For the pudding

200g soft dried dates

200ml hot steeped Earl Grey tea

1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

125g butter, softened, plus more for greasing the pan

100g caster sugar

75g dark Muscovado sugar

2 large eggs

175g self-raising flour

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1โ„2 tsp ground nutmeg


For the Spiced rum toffee sauce


100g butter

100g golden caster sugar

75g packed dark Muscovado sugar

2 Tbsp spiced rum or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

200 ml double cream





Directions

Step 1 - Remove the stones from the dates (if necessary) and steep in the hot earl grey tea and bicarbonate of soda. Place in a blender and blitz until smooth.


Step 2 - Using a whisk, cream together the butter and two types of sugar for 5 minutes till light and fluffy. Then crack in an egg one at a time and whisk in between to combine. Add in the date puree, sieve in the flour and add the nutmeg and cinnamon. Fold until smooth. Add the batter into your greased HexClad pan and bake at 180 degrees celsius (350ยฐF) for 30 minutes. Youโ€™ll know itโ€™s done when you insert a cutlery knife into the center of the cake and it comes out clean.


Step 3 - In a frying pan, melt the butter and sugar together until bubbling. Add in the spiced rum and flambรฉ. Finish with the cream. Pour over the sticky toffee pudding and serve with some vanilla ice cream.

๐Ÿ™„ Help: Seriously? You don't need any help.
๐ŸŒ„ Why No Pictures: Well, there ARE some pictures, here and there. But to be honest, if you need pictures showing you how to stir something, you shouldn't be cooking! And really, I find them annoying when all I want to do is look at the recipe! Also, we haven't made most of these recipes. We occasionally take pictures of the finished product when we remember!
๐Ÿ’ฏ Why There Are Recipe Numbers Missing: Well, it's like this. The recipe numbers are automatically generated by the database, always using a new number for a new recipe. Over the last 20 years many recipes, mostly test recipes, have been added and then deleted, leaving only their memory and their number behind. And there was also a lot of weird stuff going on in the beginning, which messed up the order. In terms of date added, the first one is #6, then #4, #9, #10, #4, #718!!!, #2, and finally #1. Just the way databases and poor programmers work!
