Sticky Toffee Pudding
Years ago, I attended a Christmas party/dinner where the dessert was one of those sticky English puddings. I loved how moist and flavourful the pudding (cake) was and the caramel sauce was dreamy.
I’ve finally gotten around to making my own version and I also served it to guests at my last Supper Club that took place just a couple of days ago. This recipe hot!
