Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Sticky Toffee Pudding
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped dates and baking soda, pouring boiling water over the mixture. Let it sit and soak for about 10 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the unsalted butter and light brown sugar until fluffy, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  4. Add the egg to your butter and sugar mixture, mixing well until fully incorporated.
  5. Gently stir the soaked date mixture into your creamed butter and sugar until everything is combined.
  6. In another bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and baking powder together, then gradually fold this into the wet ingredients.
  7. Transfer the batter to a greased baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes.
  8. While the pudding bakes, prepare your toffee sauce. Melt together butter, brown sugar, heavy cream, corn syrup, salt, and bourbon over medium heat.
  9. Once the pudding is done, remove it from the oven and pour the warm toffee sauce generously over the top.
