Instructions:
- Preparing the Pudding:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.
- In a small bowl, combine the chopped dates, boiling water, and baking soda. Let it sit for 10 minutes to soften the dates.

- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the softened dates along with the soaking liquid until well incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the greased baking dish and spread it evenly.
- Baking the Pudding:
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly while preparing the toffee sauce.
- Preparing the Toffee Sauce:
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the brown sugar and stir until dissolved.
- Pour in the heavy cream and vanilla extract, stirring continuously.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Serving the Sticky Toffee Pudding:
- Cut the warm pudding into squares and serve on individual plates or bowls.
- Drizzle the toffee sauce generously over each portion.
