Number Of Ingredients 16

For the Pudding:
225 grams/8 ounces cooking dates (stoned and chopped small)
175 milliliters/6 fluid ounces water (boiling)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
175 grams/6 ounces self-raising flour
1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
2 large, fresh eggs (lightly beaten)
85 grams/3 ounces butter (softened, plus extra for greasing)
140 grams/5 ounces demerara sugar
2 tablespoon black treacle

175 grams/6 ounces light muscovado sugar

1 tablespoon black treacle

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 F /160 C / Gas 3.
  • Butter and lightly dust an 8 x 8 x 2 1/2-inch square baking tin with flour.
  • Put the chopped dates into a large glass bowl, cover with boiling water, leave for 20 minutes to swell and soften. Once soft, add the vanilla extract.
  • Sieve the flour and bicarbonate of soda into a large baking bowl.
  • In another baking bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and creamy, don't worry about grains of sugar, they will melt during cooking.
  • Little by little, add the beaten eggs, mixing really well between additions. Add the treacle and beat well.
  • Using a large metal spoon carefully fold in one-third of the flour, then carefully stir in one-third of the milk. Repeat until all the flour and milk is used up.

  • Add the treacle and allow the sauce to bubble for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and leave to cool for 1 minute then stir in the remaining cream.
  • Place a portion of the cake onto warm individual serving dishes, and drizzle generous amounts of sauce over.

WARM STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING



Warm Sticky Toffee Pudding image

This rich dessert is not pudding in the American sense of the word. The moist, spiced cake is loaded with mincemeat and toasted walnuts, drizzled with warm buttery toffee sauce. We like our sticky toffee pudding steaming or at room temperature. -Denise Nyland, Panama City, Florida

STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING

Categories     dessert

Time 1h40m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 ounces pitted dates
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup light brown sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 large egg, at room temperature
1 tablespoon orange zest
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
2/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons Irish whiskey

Steps:

  • For the pudding: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Add the dates and 3/4 cup water to a small saucepan and heat over medium-high heat until boiling. Turn the heat down to low and simmer until the water has slightly reduced and the dates are beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Turn off the heat, then cover the saucepan and let sit for 10 minutes.
  • Transfer the dates and liquid to a food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Process until smooth. Pour the date mixture into a bowl and cool to room temperature.
  • Add the flour, baking powder and salt to a mixing bowl. Whisk to break up any lumps of flour. Set aside the dry ingredients. Add the brown sugar and butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Cream the butter and sugar together, scraping down the bowl as needed, until fluffy and lighter in color, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the egg and beat until it is evenly combined. Add the orange zest and vanilla and mix until incorporated. Add half of the flour mixture to the butter mixture. Mix until incorporated, then add the date mixture. Mix until well combined, then add the remaining flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
  • Spray 8 of the cups in a 12-cup muffin pan with the cooking spray. Fill the greased cups with 1/3 cup batter each. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 20 minutes.
  • For the whiskey toffee sauce: Meanwhile, add the heavy whipping cream, brown sugar, butter, vanilla and salt to a small saucepan and heat over medium-high heat. Stir the mixture continuously until the butter is melted. Bring the mixture to a boil, then turn the heat down to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add the whiskey and continue to simmer until the sauce has slightly darkened in color, an additional 2 minutes. Turn the heat off and keep covered until ready to serve.
  • Cool the puddings in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Once the puddings are cool enough to handle, remove them from the muffin pan using an offset spatula. Trim the domed tops from the puddings and set them on serving plates, cut-side down. Pour the warm whiskey toffee sauce over the puddings and serve immediately.
