Sticky Toffee Pudding has changed my life.Forever.
I had it for the first time a few months ago in London. Holy wow. I had no idea what to expect, but I knew I had to try it. It was so rich, warm, and seemed to melt in my mouth. Especially after getting caught in a very cold rainy downpour, it was heavenly.
Sticky Toffee Pudding is an English dessert that is steamed, consisting of a moist sponge cake with finely chopped dates. It's then covered in toffee sauce and served with vanilla ice cream. Could it get any better?
I found a recipe that seems authentically English. I'm kind of afraid to try it. If it turns out well, I'm in trouble. I'll make it a lot and eat it all without sharing. Not good at all. If it turns out poorly, then I'll be disappointed and wish I was back in England even more. It's a precarious line to balance.
I do know that I am changed. I know full well that I have a problem with sweets, but at least I go for the good stuff. I'm still dreaming of Sticky Toffee Pudding.
