Sticky Date Puddings

With this recipe, we made 12 individual puddings in our muffin tray. These moist sturdy date puddings can be served with caramel sauce or butterscotch sauce and vanilla ice cream, custard or whipped cream. I like to dice a date or two and sprinkle over the top as well.

To make these puddings, you will first need to soften the dates by placing them in a heat-proof bowl with the boiling water and bi-carbonate of soda (baking soda). Let them sit for 5 minutes while you beat the butter and brown sugar in a food processor. Then add the dates, water and all.

Blend until the mixture is smooth and combined. Scrape down the sides and add the flour and eggs. Blend until combined and then divide the mixture between 12 muffin cases. Bake for around 15 – 20 minutes until the spring back when touched in the centre.

Let cool while you make the butterscotch sauce. 

To make this sauce, add the butter, thickened cream, brown sugar and vanilla essence to a saucepan. Cook over medium heat for around 15 minutes until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce thickens and becomes smooth.

To serve, warm up the puddings and the sauce and serve with a scoop of your favourite ice cream, whipped cream or custard.
