Preparing the Date Mixture

1. Soak the Dates – Begin by soaking the dates in hot water to soften, allowing them to blend smoothly into the batter.
2. Blend – Puree the soaked dates to create a thick, smooth paste that will add moisture and flavor to the pudding.

Mixing the Batter

1. Cream Butter and Sugar – Beat together until light and fluffy for a smooth batter base.
2. Add Eggs and Flour – Gradually incorporate eggs and flour to avoid lumps.
3. Fold in Date Mixture – Adding the date paste at this stage will create a perfectly blended, moist batter.

Baking Process

1. Prepare Molds – Pour the batter into individual ramekins or a single baking dish, depending on your preference.
2. Bake – Bake in the oven until the sponge is golden and springs back when gently pressed.

Making the Toffee Sauce

1. Combine Ingredients – In a saucepan, melt butter, add brown sugar and cream, and simmer gently.
2. Stir and Thicken – Cook on low heat, stirring continuously until the sauce is thick and smooth.

Assembling the Dessert

• Pour Sauce Over Pudding – Spoon generous amounts of sauce over the warm pudding, letting it seep into the sponge.
• Serve Warm – For a complete experience, pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
