Birthday Dessert - Sticky Toffee Pud

We were at the ‘Mals’ on Saturday night for Chris’ birthday meal.  Louise, being the good wife that she is wanted to cook his favourite meal. She left me in charge of dessert……. sticky toffee pud, yum!  It’s always been a favourite of mine, a good old traditional pud and so easy to do.

Only slight hiccup was when it came to cooking them - some fool had turned the oven down to 50c which would explain why the puds hadn’t risen after nearly an hour in the oven!! Maybe too much wine consumed beforehand!

Eventually after an hour’s delay dessert was served and everyone loved it. Mal said it was the best sticky pud he’d ever had.  The slight cooking cockup was worth it in the end!

Great night!

Fab good with fab friends!

6oz self raising flour
2 eggs
4 tbsp milk

Grease 6 ramekins with abit of butter
Divide the mixture up between the 6 ramekins

Place the ramekins into a roasting tray and pour boiling water so it comes half way up the side of the ramekins.
Cover with foil and bake for about 30 minutes.

For the toffee sauce, heat the toffees and double cream in a saucepan until you get a smooth sauce.
Once the puds are ready use a knife to go round the edge and tip upside down onto a serving plate.
Pour over the toffee sauce and serve with custard or ice-cream.
