Instructions
• Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Boil the kettle. • Finely chop diced dried dates. • Pour 1/2 cup boiling water into a large heatproof bowl, then add dates. Stir and set aside until lukewarm, 10 minutes.
TIP: Reserve the water to use in step 2!
• While the dates are soaking, melt the butter in a small saucepan. • To the bowl with the soaked dates, add basic sponge mix (see ingredients), brown sugar(see ingredients), melted butter and the eggs. Mix until well combined.
• Generously grease base and sides of the baking dish and pour in sticky date batter. Bake until just firm to the touch, 35-40 minutes. • When the pudding has 5 minutes remaining, return saucepan to medium heat. Cook caramel sauce, whisking, until starting to bubble, 4-5 minutes. • Poke a few holes in the top of the cooked pudding and pour over caramel sauce.
TIP: To check if the pudding is done, stick a toothpick or skewer in the centre, it should come out clean.
• Divide sticky date pudding between bowls. • Top with cream (see ingredients) to serve. Enjoy!
