| Evelyn House — No one makes Sticky Toffee Pudding like Sarah does. No-bo-dy (recipe stolen from Nigel Slater) - For the pudding 150g dates, stones removed, chopped 250ml hot water 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda 60g butter, softened 60g caster sugar 2 free-range eggs 150g self-raising flour - For the toffee sauce 200g butter 400g brown sugar vanilla pod, split 250ml double cream - Preheat the oven to 180C. Mix the dates, bicarbonate of soda and the water together in a bowl and leave to soak for ten minutes. In a clean bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. (we are lazy and do it with the electrical whisk, you have to keep going until it has almost turned white - a bit of patience is needed) Still stirring the butter mixture, gradually add the eggs, making sure they are well mixed in. Still stirring (yup lots of stirring), gradually add the flour, then add the date mixture. Pour the mixture into a 20cm/8in square cake tin. Place into the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until cooked through (handy trick: you can stick a match in the cake, if it comes out covered in dough it needs to cook for a bit longer). - To make the sauce, melt the butter in a thick bottomed pan over a medium heat. Add the brown sugar, vanilla pod and cream and stir well. Simmer for five minutes. (In our experience there's N E V E R enough sticky toffee sauce, we are considering making double next time) To serve, spoon out a portion of the pudding onto a plate and pour over the hot toffee sauce.
