GARY RHODES - STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease an 11x7 inch baking dish.
• Boil the dates in the water for about 5 minutes until soft, then add the baking soda.
• Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, then add the eggs and beat well.
• Mix in the dates, flour and vanilla, then pour into the greased baking pan and cook in the preheated oven for about 30-40 minutes, or until just firm to the touch.
• To make the sauce, simply place all the ingredients in a pan over a low heat and stir together until blended, then bring to the boil.
• Some of this can be poured over the pudding and finished under the broiler, or it can be kept totally separate and ladled over the pudding when served.

Steps:

• Directions for Pudding:.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Chop the dates as finely as you prefer (if you like chunks in your cake, keep them bigger, but I usually like small small pieces).
• Boil the water and pour over the dates. Add the baking powder, baking soda, and vanilla extract. Let soak for about 5 minutes or so.
• While the dates soak, cream the softened butter and sugar with a mixer (paddle attachment helps).
• Add the egg and beat until combined and smooth. Add the flour.
• Stir in soaked date mixture and mix until combined.
• Place into 8 x 8 (or something similar) greased baking tray and bake for 30-40 minutes at 350 degrees. Toothpick or knife should come out clean when done. Be sure to check at 30 minutes, since oven times may vary.
• Directions for sauce:.
• Melt butter in saucepan.
• Add brown sugar and cream, bring to a boil.
• Boil for 2-3 mins until texture is slightly fudgy and velvety.
• Serve cake warm with warm sauce. We add the cooled sauce to the top of the cake and warm in microwave for 20 seconds, then top with a dollop of whipped cream or cool whip.
• The more sauce you use, the stickier the wicket!
