Sticky date pudding fans rejoice, I have mastered the single serve mug cake version of this incredible dessert!
Ingredients
Sticky Date Pudding
- 10 dates chopped
- 2 tbsp boiling water
- 1/2 tsp bicarb soda
- 1.5 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1.5 tbsp self raising flour
- 1 egg yolk
Caramel sauce
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp butter
- 1 tsp milk
Instructions
Sticky Date Pudding
- In a large mug place the chopped dates and water. Place in microwave for 1 minute to soften the dates.
- Take the mug out of the microwave, add in the bicarb soda and mash with a fork - it will fizz a bit.
- Add the butter to the mixture and microwave again for 10-15 sec until melted.
- Finally, add in the sugar, flour and egg yolk and mix to thoroughly combine.
- Place in the microwave for a final 1 minute. It may need a further 10 sec to finish it, depending on the strength of your microwave.
Caramel sauce
- In a small microwave-proof bowl, add in the sugar, butter and milk and place in the microwave for 20 seconds.
- Remove and stir and repeat another two to three times until you end up with a dark caramel sauce.
- Drizzle over your sticky date mug cake and top with icecream if desired!
