Ingredients

1 cup of date
1 cup of water
1/2 cup of unsalted butter
1 cup of brown sugar
2 large egg
3 tablespoons of molasses
1 1/2 cup of self-rising flour
1/4 cup of milk
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1 1/2 cup of heavy cream
1 ounce of brandy

Directions

First of all, put the dates in a mixing bowl filled with water and let them swell for 30 minutes. At this point, they should cool down. Then mash it into a puree with a fork.
Add the vanilla pod to the pulp in the mixing bowl and mix well—this will ensure a good distribution of flavor. Set the mixture aside and grease the mold you will use for the pudding. Preheat the oven to 350 ˚F, or 300 ˚F in a fan oven.
While the dates are soaking, use an electric mixer or silicone spoon to beat the butter and sugar. Beat until you get a light and creamy consistency.
Add an egg to the sticky toffee pudding mix and mix well to get a smooth surface. Repeat this, one egg at a time, until you have used all the eggs.
Then add the molasses to the mixture and finally add one-third of the flour and baking soda. Use a metal spoon or whisk, as they are the easiest way to break dry ingredients into liquid mixtures.
Follow the flour with one-third of the milk and then add one-third of the flour. Continue mixing the ingredients until smooth, until the milk and flour are gone. Mix soaked dates, including liquid, into the cake batter.
Pour the dough into the baking dish. Bake the pudding for 50 minutes, or until it has risen well and is nicely firm in the center. A test skewer or cake tester should come out clean when inserted into the thickest part of the cake.
While the pudding is cooking, start preparing the toffee sauce. In a large, heavy-bottomed skillet, add dark brown sugar, brandy, butter, and half the cream. Allow the sugar to dissolve without bringing it to a boil.Turn on the stove before adding the molasses. While the molasses is in the pan, allow the mixture to bubble slightly for two to three minutes.
Then mix the remaining cream into the sauce. Keep warm until ready to serve.
After removing the pudding from the oven, let it cool for about 20 minutes. Then pour half of the sauce over the sponge cake. This will allow the sauce to cool slightly for about fifteen minutes, giving it a great texture.
Cut it into slices and serve with an additional drizzle of sauce or ice cream.
