ABSOLUTELY SINFUL! STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING WITH PECAN TOFFEE SAUCE



Absolutely Sinful! Sticky Toffee Pudding With Pecan Toffee Sauce image

This is as wicked as it sounds. A truly delectable combination of flavours and textures that are light and melt in the mouth. I would choose this as a Christmas or New Year dinner party dessert, as the puddings freeze well and are no trouble to re-heat. A modern British classic - sticky toffee pudding was thought to have originated from the Sharrow Bay Hotel in Ullswater in the Lake District of Northern England There is also a school of thought that John Tovey at Miller Howe in Windermere was the first to make this. Either way, the pudding is as iconic today as it was when it was first baked and devoured by the lucky diners of either one of those hotels! My recipe is based on the recipe that Delia Smith published in her Christmas cookbook, but I have made several changes that I feel work better for me, the main change is to increase the pecan toffee sauce quantities, as I have had grown people - mainly males - fighting over who gets the last dribble of this delectable sauce!! I hope you find the step-by-step photos useful when you make this for the first time. (This was featured in the September 2008 Cooking School Topic of the Month on Zaar - a wonderful event where lots of talented chefs on Zaar showed off their culinary skills through photographic tutorials!) Prep time includes the time needed for soaking the dates.

Time 1h48m

Yield 8 Little Sticky Toffee Puddings, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 ounces butter, softened
5 ounces soft brown sugar
2 eggs, beaten
6 ounces self-raising flour
6 ounces stoned dates, chopped
6 fluid ounces boiling water
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
2 tablespoons instant coffee granules, hot water added to make about 1/3 cup or 1/3 cup strong fresh coffee
3/4 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
8 ounces soft brown sugar
6 ounces butter
12 tablespoons double cream (heavy)
2 ounces pecan nuts, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 180C/360°F Lightly butter 8 x 3" ramekin dishes. I like to spray them to coat them evenly.
  • Soak the dates in the boiling water for about half an hour to soften them. Add the bicarbonate of soda, vanilla essence and coffee mixture, mix well and allow to soak for 30 minutes more.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then add the beaten eggs, a little at a time, and beat well after each addition. Fold in the sifted flour, again a little at a time, gently mixing through after each addition.
  • Then add the date mixture. You should have a fairly sloppy mixture, it looks all wrong - but it is ALL right, I promise you! Divide the mixture equally between the ramekins, place them on a baking tray and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until well risen.
  • Cool for 5 minutes, then loosen them around the sides with a butter knife and turn out. The puddings can be cooled and frozen at this stage. After freezing, defrost, pour the hot sauce over and re-heat to serve as instructed below.
  • To serve:- Place the puddings in a shallow ovenproof dish. Heat the grill. Make the sauce by melting the butter, cream, pecans and sugar together in a pan, and stir well.When just boiling, pour HALF of the sauce over the puddings; and then continue to heat the sauce on a rolling boil until it has thickened.
  • Place the puddings 5" below the grill and cook for about 8 minutes, making sure that the nuts and sauce does not burn too badly; you should have toasted nuts in places, with a sticky toffee glaze which is almost crunchy.
  • Serve with the extra toffee sauce in a heatproof jug, chilled cream, custard, ice-cream, or just NAKED!

CHEWY TOFFEE PECAN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Chewy Toffee Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookies image

Absolutely the best cookies ever! I made enough to fill two gallon-size plastic bags and they were gone within a day. This recipe was a runner-up in a contest that was in the Paula Deen magazine. (Her recipe says this makes three dozen, but I came out with about eight dozen) I used chocolate covered toffee bits instead of the plain toffee bits and it was fantastic so don't worry if you can't find the plain ones. The cooking time is cumulative for all batches (and is approximate).

Provided by luvn-n-the-oven

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h

Yield 75-85 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup chopped pecans
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup all-vegetable shortening
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup molasses
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups semisweet chocolate morsels
1 (8 ounce) bag toffee pieces
1 cup turbinado sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In the work bowl of a food processor, add flour, pecans, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt: process until nuts are finely ground into flour.
  • In a large bowl, beat butter, shortening, white and dark brown sugars at medium-high speed with an electric mixer until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  • Add molasses, eggs, and vanilla; beat on low speed just until blended.
  • Gradually add flour mixture, beathing just until dough forms.
  • Stir in chocolate morsels and toffee bits.
  • Roll dough into 1-inch balls; then roll balls in turbinado sugar. Do not flatten. NOTE: You may need more turbinado sugar - just use more if you need more. I ended up with probably closer to 2 cups.
  • Place 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets. Bake 10-12 minutes, or until lightly browned and slightly flattened.
  • Let cool on pans for 15 minutes. Remove from pans, and cool completely on wire racks.
  • NOTE: you may find it useful to rinse and dry hands every so often, as that helps the dough roll into a ball more easily.

This mouthwatering recipe from audience member Marjorie Johnson took home the blue ribbon at our first pie contest.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Yield Makes one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup cold leaf lard, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons cold butter, cut into pieces
3 to 4 tablespoons ice water
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
2/3 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup firmly packed light-brown sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup toffee bits
1 cup chopped pecans
22 pecan halves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Make the crust: In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Using a pastry cutter, cut in lard and butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs, about the size of peas. Sprinkle with water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and mix lightly with a fork after each addition, until mixture is moistened. Turn out dough onto a clean work surface and shape into a flattened disk. Wrap in plastic; transfer to refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes.
  • Lightly flour a pastry cloth and roll out dough on cloth, using a covered rolling pin, to a 12-inch round, about 1/8-inch thick. With a dry pastry brush, sweep off excess flour; fit dough into a 9-inch glass pie plate. Trim to a 1/2-inch overhang all around. Fold under and crimp edges.
  • Make the filling: Preheat oven with a rack set in the lower third to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, mix together eggs, corn syrup, brown sugar, butter, salt, vanilla, almond extract, toffee bits, and chopped pecans.
  • Pour filling into pie crust. Top with pecans by evenly spacing 14 of them around the outer edge of pie filling. Make a second row by evenly spacing seven pecans in a smaller circle in the center; place 1 pecan in center.
  • Transfer pie to oven; bake for 20 minutes. Cover with parchment paper-lined aluminum foil and continue baking until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 20 to 30 minutes more. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

BUTTER PECAN-TOFFEE PIE

Categories     dessert

Time 3h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg yolk
3 large eggs
1 cup packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup light corn syrup
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon butter extract
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups roughly chopped pecans
1/2 cup toffee bits

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Pulse the flour, granulated sugar and salt in a food processor to combine. Add the butter and pulse until it is in pea-size pieces. Whisk the egg yolk with 1/4 cup ice water; add 2 tablespoons to the food processor and pulse a couple of times. Add the remaining egg mixture and pulse a few more times until the dough just comes together but is still crumbly. Turn out onto a piece of plastic wrap; shape into a disk and wrap. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • Put a baking sheet on the middle oven rack and preheat to 425 degrees F for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, roll out the dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Ease the dough into a 9-inch pie plate. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp with your fingers or a fork. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling: Whisk the eggs, brown sugar, corn syrup, melted butter, vanilla and butter extracts, lemon juice, salt, pecans and toffee bits in a large bowl until combined. Pour the filling into the chilled crust. Transfer the pie to the hot baking sheet and reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake until the crust is deep golden and the filling is set around the edge but still jiggly in the center, 55 minutes to 1 hour. (Tent the crust with foil if it browns too quickly.) Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.

CHOCOLATE-TOFFEE PECAN TART



Chocolate-Toffee Pecan Tart image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 4h

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 large egg, beaten
1 1/2 cups pecan halves
10 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2/3 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
3 large eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons bourbon

Steps:

  • Make the dough: Pulse the flour, cocoa, confectioners' sugar and salt in a food processor until combined. Add the butter; pulse until the mixture looks like coarse meal with pea-size bits of butter. Add the egg and pulse once or twice. (Stop before the dough gathers into a ball.) Turn out onto a sheet of plastic wrap and press into a disk. Wrap tightly and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
  • Place the dough on a large sheet of lightly floured parchment paper. Roll into a 12-inch round, no more than 1/8 inch thick. Invert the dough over a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom and peel off the parchment; press the dough into the bottom and sides of the pan. (If the dough tears, just pat it back together.) Trim the excess dough. Cover with plastic wrap and chill at least 1 hour.
  • Position racks in the middle and lower third of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Line the crust with foil, then fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake on the middle rack, 20 minutes. Remove the foil and weights and continue baking until crisp, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely.
  • Prepare the filling: Coarsely chop 1 cup pecans. Combine the butter, granulated sugar, vanilla and kosher salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring, until the mixture turns dark amber, 6 to 8 minutes. Immediately stir in the chopped pecans and cook 1 to 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the corn syrup and brown sugar until dissolved. Cool until lukewarm, then whisk in the eggs and bourbon until combined. (The tart can be made 1 day ahead up to this point; cover and refrigerate the filling and wrap the cooled crust in plastic wrap.)
  • Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees F. Place the tart shell on a baking sheet and pour in the filling up to the brim. Arrange the remaining 1/2 cup pecan halves on top. Bake on the lower oven rack until the tart is evenly browned and slightly domed in the center, about 40 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely.

TOFFEE-PECAN CINNAMON ROLLS



Toffee-Pecan Cinnamon Rolls image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 3h15m

Yield 12 Cinnamon Rolls

Number Of Ingredients 18

3/4 cup water
1 1/4-ounce packet active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
2 tablespoons plus 1/4 teaspoon granulated sugar
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/3 cup nonfat milk powder, sifted if needed
1 teaspoon fine salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the bowl
2 large egg yolks
1/4 cup granulated sugar, plus more for the baking dish
1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 stick unsalted butter, softened, plus more for the baking dish
1 stick unsalted butter
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup dark corn syrup
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup chopped toasted pecans

Steps:

  • Make the dough: Heat the water to 100 degrees F in a bowl in the microwave. (It should feel warm but not too hot.) Sprinkle the yeast and 1/4 teaspoon granulated sugar over the top and stir to dissolve. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the flour, milk powder, fine salt and the remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar in a large bowl and make a well in the center. Whisk the melted butter and egg yolks into the yeast mixture, then pour into the well and stir with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together into a shaggy ball.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, dust with more flour and knead, adding more flour as needed, until smooth but still slightly sticky, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the dough to a buttered bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  • Make the filling: Mix the granulated sugar, brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface, pat and roll out into a 10-by-18-inch rectangle. Spread the butter over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border on one long side. Sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar and lightly press into the butter. Brush the clean edge with water, then tightly roll up the dough into a log, starting with a long side and rolling toward the clean edge; pinch the seam to seal.
  • Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and lightly sprinkle with granulated sugar. Slice the dough log into 12 pieces and arrange cut-side up in the dish. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature until doubled in size, about 1 hour, or you can refrigerate overnight, then in the morning let stand at room temperature 2 hours before baking.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Uncover the rolls and bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool at least 15 minutes in the baking dish.
  • Meanwhile, make the toffee-pecan sauce: Bring the butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, heavy cream and kosher salt to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until thickened, 8 to 12 minutes. Stir in the pecans. Cook, stirring, until coated, 1 to 2 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, then pour over the rolls.

COFFEE PECAN TOFFEE



Coffee Pecan Toffee image

Old fashioned chocolate dipped Coffee Pecan Toffee! This makes a great gift! From Better Homes and Gardens. A popular variant of toffee in the US is English toffee, which is a very buttery toffee often made with almonds. It is available in both chewy and hard versions; there is some debate as to which is the traditional English style and which is an Americanized version. A popular presentation of English toffee is covered in chocolate and almond pieces.
