This sticky date and pecan pudding is a decadent dessert that combines the best of both the classic sticky toffee pudding and a self-saucing pudding. A light, airy batter is topped with a layer of pecans, butter, date molasses, sugar and water. As the cake batter rises, the butter and sugars dissolve and settle on the bottom of the dish to create a moist cake crowned with perfectly roasted pecans and a rich toffee sauce beneath. Served fresh from the oven with a dollop of sour cream, this pudding delivers a delightful combination of sweet, salty and tangy flavors in every bite. While you can bake it all in one go, this recipe is designed for convenience, so you can assemble it ahead of time then pop it into the oven to bake while you enjoy your meal. This ensures it's served at its best, warm and fresh from the oven, as this cake is at its most delicious when the sauce has just stopped bubbling beneath.
