Sticky Toffee Pudding

cakes
This is THE most fattening, rich dessert you will ever put in your mouth!  I ate it at the source in Aberdeen, Scotland - the Udny Arms Hotel.
Different hotels and pubs in the Lake District of England claim to have invented this yummy dessert.

Pudding Ingredients
1 stick butter
1 & 1/2 cups sugar (The recipe calls for super-fine or caster sugar, 
but that's expensive and may be hard to find.  Just use regular - if you're concerned, grind it in your coffee grinder a bit.)

2 eggs
3 & 1/3 cups self-rising flour, sifted
1 (8-ounce)package dates, pitted
1 tsp baking soda
2 cups boiling water
Ingredients for Sauce
2 sticks of butter (told you it was rich)
2 & 1/3 cups brown sugar, firmly packed
2 cups whipping cream


Steps for Pudding
  1. Cream the butter and sugar until fluffy.  Beat in eggs ONE at a time.  With spatula or wooden spoon, fold in sifted flour.
  2. Place dates and baking soda in a separate, heat-proof bowl.  Pour boiling water over them and leave until all the water has absorbed.
  3. Add the dates to the butter mixture and spoon into a large Pyrex baking dish.  Bake at 350° for about 40 minutes.
Steps for Sauce
  1. In a saucepan, boil butter, brown sugar, and cream together.
  2. Pour over the baked pudding and brown under the broiler before you serve.  (Be careful!  Don't let it burn!)
