Spiced Sticky Toffee Pudding with Brandy Toffee Sauce

If there’s one dessert that should be on your winter baking list, this is it! It’s a pretty straight forward recipe but hits big with flavour. If any of you have made this pudding before, you’ll know that softening the dates in hot water and bicarbonate of soda gives this dessert its iconic sticky texture. I’ve added in orange zest and a mixture of spices to the sponge, as well as brandy into the sauce, to ramp up your traditional sticky toffee pudding. Its rich, sticky and the perfect treat on a cold drizzly day.
