Notes

  • Dates: You can use any type of dates for this recipe. However, it's best to use large, moist dates, such as Medjool dates. Make sure to pit them and finely chop them before pouring the boiling water over them.
  • Storage: Sticky toffee pudding can be kept in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If you want to keep it for longer, store it in the refrigerator for up to a week. Just remember to warm it up before serving to bring out its sticky, toffee goodness.
