Each week when we were growing up, we used to sit down together for a Sunday roast lunch and Mum or Nan would make something special for dessert. While I have never met a dessert (especially a pudding!) that I don’t like, this Sticky Date Pudding was always one of my favourites. I’d get excited (and made sure to leave enough room!) to enjoy a big piece of it after our dinner.
As you can see from the picture below, my kids have inherited my love of desserts and this pudding. They are always a little too eager to sit down and enjoy this classic dessert.
You can make this Sticky Date Pudding into individual serves by dividing the mixture into six ramekins before baking, however I think there is nothing better than a big pudding being set down in the middle of the table for everyone to help themselves to, and of course argue over who has the biggest piece!
