Sweet Sticky Toffee Pudding

May 20, 2011

Satisfy your sweet tooth this weekend by making some sticky toffee pudding.  This dessert combines a moist sponge cake consisting of sugary dates with vanilla custard and toffee sauce, my mouth is watering just writing about it.  Sticky toffee pudding descends from Britain and eventhough British food has a poor reputation, I assure you this dessert will please the palate.
