Sticky Date Pudding
Ingredients:
Sticky Date Pudding
Salted Caramel Sauce
Method:
Sticky Date Pudding
- Preheat oven to 160C fan forced. Grease and line the base and sides of a 22cm square pan with butter and baking paper.
- Combine dates, soda and boiling water in a heatproof bowl. Allow to stand for 20 minutes until dates are soft.
- Process date mixture in a food processor. Add butter, sugar, vanilla and eggs and process until smooth. If you have a large food processor, add sifted flour and baking powder and process until smooth. Or tip date mixture into a large bowl, add flour and baking powder and stir until combined.
- Pour into prepared pan. Bake for about 1 hour or until cooked when tested with a skewer. Cover with foil if overbrowning while cooking.
- Cool pudding for 30 minutes in pan before turning upside-down on a flat surface onto a piece of baking paper. Allow to cool. This will flatten the top.
- Invert back onto a serving plate to serve warm or allow to come to room temperature.
- Make salted caramel sauce.
- Serve with sauce poured over the pudding and whipped cream on the side.
Salted Caramel Sauce
- Combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan over a medium heat. Stir until sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil. Gently boil for 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Remove and allow to cool to warm.
Tips & Hints:
- Use the large 600ml Western Star thickened cream so you can use half in sauce and whip remaining to serve with pudding.
- Cake will stay fresh for 4 days. Wrap and freeze left over pieces so they can be defrosted and warmed in the microwave for a quick dessert.
- Salted Caramel Sauce will keep in the fridge up to week. Reheat in microwave to serve.
