This sticky toffee pudding recipe looks absolutely divine! I've always been a fan of warm, comforting desserts, and this one seems like it would hit all the right notes. The combination of dates and rich toffee sauce has my mouth watering already. I can't wait to try making this for a cozy night in or even as a special treat for a dinner party.
Liking those seedy sticky toffee puddings, right? I am a big fan of dining home, of warm desserts with that combination of dates and the toffee sauce. For sure I am going to try it at home, either when I am having a chilled out evening or probably when I am making a dinner for a dinner party.;)
