Ingredients

Pudding:
  • 180 g Soft brown sugar
  • 100 g Unsalted butter softened
  • 200 g Medjool dates
  • 3 Eggs
  • 3 tbsps Black treacle
  • 250 g Self-raising flour
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 120 ml Whole milk
Toffee sauce:
  • 200 g Soft brown sugar
  • 100 g Butter
  • 400 ml Double cream
  • 2 tbsps Black treacle

Instructions

For the sticky toffee sponge:
  • Preheat the oven to 175℃, grease a 20cm square baking tin with butter.
  • Chop the medjool dates into fine pieces. Soak them in 150 ml of boiling water for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add the butter and soft brown sugar into a large mixing bowl. Use an electric whisk to beat it together until it's creamy.
  • Add the eggs and beat until combined. Next, add the black treacle and use a spoon or spatula to beat it together.
  • Tip in the self raising flour and baking powder, fold it together until it's well combined.
  • Pour in the milk and mix it well.
  • Now the dates have soaked up all the water, use a fork to mash the dates almost until it is a paste. Fold them through the sponge batter.
  • Pour the mixture into the greased up baking tray. Bake it in the oven for 50 minutes, or until a skewer poked in the middle comes out clean.
Toffee Sauce
  • Whilst it is baking you can get the toffee sauce ready. Add the butter, sugar half of the cream and the black treacle into a large pan.
  • Melt it over a medium heat, then crank up the heat and bring to the boil. Stir continuously whilst it boils for 2-3 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat then add the remaining cream and beat it together until you have a glossy toffee sauce.
  • Once the sponge is cooked, cut it into 9 portions, then pour 1/2 of the sauce over the top. You can leave it like this at room temperature for up to 2 days and reheat it in the oven.
  • When you're ready to eat it, serve it with ice cream and drizzle over some of the leftover toffee sauce.
