Time 1h35m

Yield 7 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 stick sweet unsalted butter
1/2 stick sweet unsalted butter, plus more for greasing
6 ounces dates, pitted
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch salt
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 large egg
1/4 teaspoon orange zest
Whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • For the sauce: In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, combine 1 1/4 cups of the heavy cream, the sugar, corn syrup and butter. Cook, stirring often, until a dark amber color, about 40 minutes. Carefully add the remaining 1 1/4 cups heavy cream. IT WILL BUBBLE UP AND IT IS HOT!
  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease seven 1/2 cup ramekins and set aside.
  • Combine the dates and 3/4 cup water in a small saucepan and cook until the dates are softened, about 15 minutes. Puree in a blender and cool. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a small bowl and set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the brown sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla, egg, zest and date puree. Stir in the dry ingredients. Divide into the prepared ramekins and bake about 20 minutes. Cool slightly and remove the cakes from the ramekins. Slice the cakes in half horizontally. Rinse out the ramekins. Pour a little toffee sauce in the bottom of the ramekins and top with the bottom layer of the cake. Add more toffee sauce, place the top cake layer on top and cover with more sauce. Heat slightly before serving invert onto plate and yes ...cover with more sauce. Serve with whipped cream.

EASY STICKY-TOFFEE DESSERT



Easy Sticky-Toffee Dessert image

I found this in Nigella Lawson's "Nigella Bites" cookbook last night when I was searching for an easy but oh so good dessert...I love toffee pudding dessert things and this looked good...I also had all the ingredients for it. This is easy and can be thrown together when you're making other dishes and then cook while you're eating dinner...enjoy--

Time 55m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/3 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1 cup self-rising flour, plus
2 tablespoons self-rising flour
1/2 cup whole milk
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup chopped rolled dates, plus
2 tablespoons chopped rolled dates (optional...I don't like dates, so I didn't use them)
3/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, in little blobs
2 1/4 cups boiling water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F and butter a 1 1/2-quart capacity baking dish (I used a combo of Pam and butter and it worked fine).
  • Combine the sugar with the flour in a large bowl.
  • Pour the milk into a measuring cup, beat in the egg, vanilla and melted buter and then pour this mixture over the sugar and flour, stirring--just with a wooden spoon--to combine.
  • Fold in the dates then scrape into the prepared baking dish.
  • *Don't worry if it doesn't look very full: it will do by the time it cooks*.
  • Sprinkle the sugar for the sauce over the batter and dot with the butter.
  • Pour the boiling water over the whole thing (yes, really!) and transfer to the oven.
  • Set timer for 45 minutes, though you might find the dessert needs 5 or 10 minutes more (this was a frustrating part, for whatever reason I ended up having to put it back in for almost 20 minutes-- but then it was very cake-like, Remember that it thickens up when you take it out).
  • The top of the dessert should be springy and spongy when it's cooked; underneath, the butter, dark brown sugar and boiling water will have turned into a rich, sticky sauce.
  • Serve with vanilla ice cream, creme fraiche or heavy or light cream as you wish.

STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING WITH TOFFEE SAUCE



Sticky Toffee Pudding with Toffee Sauce image

Sticky toffee pudding is essentially a rich, moist cake permeated with a thick caramel-like sauce (with extra for serving). Most recipes say to soak the dates in hot water, but here we use coffee. It gives the holiday favorite a surprising depth of flavor. Martha made this recipe on Martha Bakes episode 505.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for dish
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dish
8 ounces Medjool dates, pitted and coarsely chopped (about 1 1/4 cups)
1 cup scalding-hot strong brewed coffee
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
3/4 cup lightly packed dark-brown sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 stick unsalted butter
1 cup lightly packed dark-brown sugar
3/4 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Cake: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Butter and flour a 2 1/2-quart baking dish. Place dates in a bowl, pour coffee over dates, and let soak 15 minutes. Stir in baking soda.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Beat together butter and sugar with a mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce speed to medium and beat in eggs, one at a time, until thoroughly incorporated.
  • Reduce speed to low, and add half the flour mixture, beating until combined. Add date mixture and remaining flour mixture, and beat until just combined. (Do not overmix.) Transfer batter to dish, and bake until cake is puffed and springs back in center when gently pressed with a finger, about 25 minutes.
  • Sauce: Meanwhile, combine butter, sugar, and cream in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium (so sauce does not boil over) and boil, stirring frequently, until sauce thickens and darkens slightly, about 4 minutes.
  • Remove cake from oven and pierce holes at 1-inch intervals to bottom of cake with a wooden skewer. Pour half of hot sauce over cake and let soak 20 minutes. Serve warm with remaining sauce. Cake soaked in sauce and remaining toffee sauce can be stored at room temperature up to 1 day. Before serving, warm cake in a 300 degrees oven 10 minutes, and sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat.

WARM STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING



Warm Sticky Toffee Pudding image

This rich dessert is not pudding in the American sense of the word. The moist, spiced cake is loaded with mincemeat and toasted walnuts, drizzled with warm buttery toffee sauce. We like our sticky toffee pudding steaming or at room temperature. -Denise Nyland, Panama City, Florida
