Indulge in a decadent sticky date pudding with luscious caramel sauce.
Ingredients:
  • 175g pitted dates, roughly chopped
  • 300ml water
  • 2.50 gm bicarbonate of soda
  • 60g Premium Cultured Unsalted Butter, softened
  • 161.25 gm caster sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 187.50 gm self-raising flour
  • 4.40 gm vanilla extract

  • 180.00 gm brown sugar
  • 126.25 gm thickened cream
  • 125g Premium Cultured Unsalted Butter, softened
  • 2.20 gm vanilla extract
Instructions:
  • In a saucepan, simmer dates with water until boiling. Take off heat, mix in bicarbonate of soda, and let dates soften for 30 minutes.
  • Prepare a velvety mixture by combining the butter and sugar. Introduce the eggs one by one, ensuring thorough mixing. Carefully incorporate the flour, then blend in the date mixture and vanilla extract.
  • Transfer the mixture into a prepared 18cm square cake pan lined with butter. Bake at 160C for 45-50 minutes or until golden and a skewer comes out clean when inserted.

  • Garnish date pudding wedges with warm caramel sauce and a dollop of double cream or a scoop of ice cream.
