For the Pudding:

  • 1 cup pitted dates, chopped
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Toffee Sauce:

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dates:
    • In a small bowl, combine the chopped dates and boiling water. Stir in the baking soda and let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes to soften the dates.
  2. Preheat Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish.
  3. Make the Pudding Batter:
    • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
    • In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
    • Gently fold the flour mixture into the butter mixture, alternating with the date mixture, until just combined.
  4. Bake:
    • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. Make the Toffee Sauce:
    • While the pudding is baking, combine the heavy cream, butter, and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 5 minutes, until thickened. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  6. Serve:
    • Once the pudding is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Serve warm, drizzled with the toffee sauce, and topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.

Enjoy your indulgent dessert!
