Sticky Toffee Pudding

A dessert that tastes so much nicer than it ever looks. Warming, hearty and full of flavours and textures - it, to me, is one of the most comforting desserts. Best served with cream, ice cream or custard to add to it's rich buttery toffee sauce. You'll need:

• 300g Muscovado Sugar
  
• 175g Self Raising Flour 
  
• 125ml Whole Milk
  
• 1 Egg
  
• 1 tsp Vanilla Extract 
  
• 50g Butter (melted)
  
• 25g Butter
  
• 200g Dates
  
• 500ml Boiling Water 
  

(And, as you'll see, a baking tray to catch molten toffee drips!)
