Cooking Steps

• Boil the kettle. Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Finely chop diced dried dates. • Pour 1/2 cup boiling water into a large heatproof bowl and add dates. Stir and set aside until lukewarm, 10 minutes.

TIP: Reserve the water to use in step 2!

• While the dates are soaking, melt the butter in a small saucepan. To the bowl with dates and water, add basic sponge mix (see ingredients), brown sugar (see ingredients), melted butter and the eggs. Mix until well combined.

• Generously grease the base and sides of the baking dish and pour in sticky date batter. Bake until just firm to the touch, 35-40 minutes. • When the pudding has 5 minutes cook time remaining, return the saucepan to medium heat. Cook caramel sauce, whisking, until starting to bubble, 4-5 minutes. Poke a few holes in the top of the cooked pudding and pour over caramel sauce.

TIP: To check if the pudding is done, stick a toothpick or skewer in the centre. It should come out clean.
