Preparation Steps

  3. Cream unsalted butter and light brown sugar together for 3-5 minutes until light and fluffy.
  4. Add one egg to the mixture and mix until combined to enhance the pudding's structure.
  5. Fold the soaked date mixture into the batter gently to avoid overmixing.
  6. Whisk together all-purpose flour and baking powder in a separate bowl.
  7. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  8. Pour the batter into the greased baking dish, leveling it slightly with a spatula.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  10. Prepare the toffee sauce by melting butter, brown sugar, milk, cream, corn syrup, and salt over medium heat until smooth and bubbling.
