STICKY DATE PUDDING WITH TOFFEE SAUCE

Steps:

• Make pudding:
• Preheat oven to 375°F. and butter and flour an 8-inch square baking pan (2 inches deep), knocking out excess flour.
• Coarsely chop dates and in a 1 1/2- to 2-quart saucepan simmer dates in water, uncovered, 5 minutes. Remove pan from heat and stir in baking soda. (Mixture will foam.) Let mixture stand 20 minutes.
• While mixture is standing, into a bowl sift together flour, baking powder, ginger, and salt. In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add flour mixture in 3 batches, beating after each addition until just combined. Add date mixture and with a wooden spoon stir batter until just combined well.
• Pour batter into baking pan and set pan in a larger baking pan. Add enough hot water to larger pan to reach halfway up sides of smaller pan and bake in middle of oven until a tester comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove smaller pan from water bath and cool pudding to warm on a rack.
• Make sauce while pudding is cooling:
• In a 1 1/2- to 2-quart heavy saucepan melt butter over moderate heat and add brown sugar. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally, and stir in cream and vanilla. Simmer sauce, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. Cool sauce to warm.
• Cut warm pudding into squares. Serve pudding with ice cream and warm sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12 cup muffin tin. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and chocolate in a small bowl, and set aside.
• Bring the dates and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Remove from the heat, and stir in the baking soda. Allow the mixture to stand for 5 minutes, then scrape into a blender, and carefully puree until smooth; set aside.
• Cream 1/4 cup of butter together with the superfine sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well between each addition. Fold in the flour mixture and the date puree until well blended. Spoon into the prepared muffin cups.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Meanwhile, stir together the cream, brown sugar, and 1 cup of butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat until the butter melts; set aside.
• When the puddings have baked for 25 minutes, remove them from the oven, and cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Remove the puddings from the muffin tin, and place them onto a baking sheet. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the sauce over each pudding, then return to the oven and bake for 5 minutes more.
• To serve, spoon some of the sauce onto the bottom of a dessert plate, and place a pudding on top. Lightly dust with confectioners' sugar, and top with a 1/4 cup scoop of ice cream. Repeat with the remaining date puddings.

Steps:

• Remove pits from dates and finely chop them into small pieces. Transfer to a bowl and pour boiling water over. Allow them to stand for about 30 minutes until cool, then mash roughly with a fork and stir in the vanilla bean paste. Butter and flour eight 8x7-centimeter mini pudding moulds and set them aside. Preheat oven to 356°F. Mix flour and bicarbonate of soda in a dry bowl. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar together for a few minutes until slightly creamy (mixture will be grainy from the sugar). Beat eggs in a separate bowl and add them into the butter-sugar mixture a little at a time, beating well between additions. Next, beat in the black treacle, then gently fold in one-third of the flour and half of the milk with a spatula. Repeat until all the flour and milk is used. Be careful not to over-mix. Gently stir in the dates. You will achieve a soft and thick batter. Divide batter between the moulds, leaving a gap from the rim to allow space for the puddings to rise. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until risen and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. While the puddings are baking, make toffee sauce. Combine sugar, butter and half the cream in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring regularly until the sugar has dissolved. Stir in the black treacle, turn up the heat slightly and allow the mixture to bubble away for 2-3 minutes until it is a rich toffee color, stirring occasionally to make sure it doesn't burn. Remove from heat and stir in the rest of the cream. When the puddings are ready, remove them from the oven and leave aside until cool enough to touch. Trim off excess and run a palette knife along the insides of the tins to loosen them. To serve, drizzle the toffee sauce over the puddings or soak them in the sauce overnight for stickier puddings. Spoil yourself further with an indulgent scoop of ice cream and a tuile wheel! Dig in!
