How To.
Firstly chop the date finely then place them in a bowl with the baking soda and hot water. This softens them. I found that when chopped finely enough they do not need to be mashed to a paste. They will melt when baking. As long as they are finely chopped. See the instructions on the recipe below.
Mix all the other ingredients as per recipe and bake this mixture in a greased muffin pan and make the butterscotch sauce. Leave to cool on a cooler rack for about 5 minutes before removing them. Other wise they will break up. The butterscotch sauce needs to be poured over the warm puddings to soak in. Keep some or make double for pouring over once it is served.
Serve on a bowl or plate that will hold the sauce. This may be serve as a fine dining dessert with a gourmet meal. Additionally serving it with ice cream or custard is another option. Its very delicious and make a great moist pudding.
