ENGLISH STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING



English Sticky Toffee Pudding image

This recipe was given to me by an English coworker, and it is unbelievable! Would make a great dessert for a holiday dinner. It's called a pudding, however, this is a moist cake with a caramel topping (the sticky part). You'll find that the caramel recipe alone is great, and could be used for many different things.

Time 55m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
1 egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup boiling water
3/4 cup pitted dates
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup brown sugar
6 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup cream

Steps:

  • Directions for Pudding:.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Chop the dates as finely as you prefer (if you like chunks in your cake, keep them bigger, but I usually like small small pieces).
  • Boil the water and pour over the dates. Add the baking powder, baking soda, and vanilla extract. Let soak for about 5 minutes or so.
  • While the dates soak, cream the softened butter and sugar with a mixer (paddle attachment helps).
  • Add the egg and beat until combined and smooth. Add the flour.
  • Stir in soaked date mixture and mix until combined.
  • Place into 8 x 8 (or something similar) greased baking tray and bake for 30-40 minutes at 350 degrees. Toothpick or knife should come out clean when done. Be sure to check at 30 minutes, since oven times may vary.
  • Directions for sauce:.
  • Melt butter in saucepan.
  • Add brown sugar and cream, bring to a boil.
  • Boil for 2-3 mins until texture is slightly fudgy and velvety.
  • Serve cake warm with warm sauce. We add the cooled sauce to the top of the cake and warm in microwave for 20 seconds, then top with a dollop of whipped cream or cool whip.
  • The more sauce you use, the stickier the wicket!

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

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.

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.

ULTIMATE STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING



Ultimate sticky toffee pudding image

One of our most requested recipes - puddings don't get any better than this

Provided by Angela Nilsen

Categories     Buffet, Dessert, Dinner, Supper, Treat

Time 1h25m

Yield Makes 7 little puddings

Number Of Ingredients 15

225g whole medjool dates
175ml boiling water
1 tsp vanilla extract
175g self-raising flour, plus extra for greasing
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
2 eggs
85g butter, softened, plus extra for greasing
140g demerara sugar
2 tbsp black treacle
100ml milk
cream or custard to serve (optional)
175g light muscovado sugar
50g butter, cut into pieces
225ml double cream
1 tbsp black treacle

Steps:

  • Stone and chop 225g medjool dates quite small, put them in a bowl, then pour over 175ml boiling water.
  • Leave for about 30 mins until cool and well-soaked, then mash a bit with a fork. Stir in 1 tsp vanilla extract.
  • Butter and flour seven mini pudding tins (each about 200ml/7fl oz) and sit them on a baking sheet. Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4.
  • While the dates are soaking, make the puddings. Mix 175g self-raising flour and 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda together and beat the 2 eggs in a separate bowl.
  • Beat 85g softened butter and 140g demerara sugar together in a large bowl for a few mins until slightly creamy (the mixture will be grainy from the sugar). Add the eggs a little at a time, beating well between additions.
  • Beat in 2 tbsp black treacle then, using a large metal spoon, gently fold in one-third of the flour and bicarbonate of soda mix, then half of the 100ml milk, being careful not to overbeat. Repeat until all the flour mix and all the milk is used.
  • Stir the soaked dates into the pudding batter. The mix may look a little curdled at this point and will be like a soft, thick batter.
  • Spoon it evenly between the tins and bake for 20-25 mins, until risen and firm.
  • Meanwhile, put the 175g light muscovado sugar and 50g butter pieces for the sauce in a medium saucepan with half the 225ml double cream.
  • Bring to the boil over a medium heat, stirring all the time, until the sugar has completely dissolved.
  • Stir in 1 tbsp black treacle, turn up the heat slightly and let the mixture bubble away for 2-3 mins until it is a rich toffee colour, stirring occasionally to make sure it doesn't burn. Take the pan off the heat and beat in the rest of the double cream.
  • Remove the puddings from the oven. Leave in the tins for a few mins, then loosen them well from the sides of the tins with a small palette knife before turning them out.
  • You can serve them now with the sauce drizzled over, but they'll be even stickier if left for a day or two coated in the sauce. To do this, pour about half the sauce into one or two ovenproof serving dishes.
  • Sit the upturned puddings on the sauce, then pour the rest of the sauce over them. Cover with a loose tent of foil so that the sauce doesn't smudge (no need to chill).
  • When ready to serve, heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Warm the puddings through, still covered, for 15-20 mins or until the sauce is bubbling. Serve them on their own, or with cream or custard.

STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING



Sticky Toffee Pudding image

English dessert was either invented or made famous by Francis Coulson, the owner of the Sharrow Bay Hotel in the Lake District in England. If you want to make this dessert ahead of time, let the cakes cool completely and do not drizzle the sauce. Store in a Ziploc bag in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. When ready to serve, drizzle each pudding with 1 tbsp of the sauce and heat in a 350°F oven for 5 minutes or until warmed through. This recipe is from the book "Sticky, Chewy, Messy, Gooey" and it recommends serving this with vanilla ice cream. The desserts I had in England were more likely to be served with some cream to pour over them than ice cream, so you may choose whichever you prefer.

Time 1h15m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups pitted dates, chopped
1 1/2 cups water
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup unsalted butter
3 cups firmly packed dark muscovado sugar or 3 cups dark brown sugar
2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Lightly butter a 12-cup muffin tin or spray with non-stick cooking spray. Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Combine the dates and water in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and bring to a gentle boil.
  • Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until the dates are softened and have absorbed the water.
  • Remove from heat and stir 1 tsp of the baking soda. Let stand for about 20 minutes.
  • While the dates are soaking, sift together the flour, salt, 1/4 tsp baking soda, and the baking powder into a bowl then set aside.
  • In another bowl, beat together the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, and then beat in the vanilla.
  • Stir in the dates and any soaking liquid into the batter.
  • Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet batter until just combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups 2/3 full. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, 22-28 minutes.
  • While the batter is baking, make the toffee sauce. Combine the butter and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat.
  • Cook until the butter and sugar melt together. Add the cream, vanilla, and salt. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens, 6-8 minutes.
  • Remove the cakes from the oven and poke the tops of each a few times with a toothpick. Drizzle 1 tbsp of the sauce over each cake and allow it to sink in completely.
  • To serve, spoon a little sauce on each dessert plate and place a cake, top-side down, in the sauce. Spoon more warm sauce over the top of the cake and serve immediately with cream or vanilla ice cream.
