This recipe is out of a pudding cookbook and is delicious! Notes: The sauce is to be served hot but the pudding can be cold, do not be put of by the amount of sugar-it will be worth it and do not mind if you do not like dates, I do not but this is my favourite pudding...ever! Also the cooking time may be longer in a non-fan oven and it is easier if the ingredients are ready prepared but not crucial. Enjoy xxx

Steps:
- To make the pudding, put the dates and bicarbonate of soda in a heatproof bowl. Cover with boiling water and leave to soak.
- Preheat the oven to 180c/350f/gas mark 4.
- Grease a cake tin (round or square) 20cm diameter, with butter.
- Put the remaining butter in a separate bowl, add sugar, and mix well.
- Beat the eggs then fold in the flour.
- Drain the soaked dates, add to the bowl and mix.
- Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared cake tin.
- Transfer to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30mins(longer for a non fan oven). The pudding is cooked when a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
- About 5-10mins before the end of the cooking time, make the sauce.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over a medium heat.
- Stir in the cream and the sugar and bring to the boil, stirring constantly.
- Lower the heat and simmer for 5mins.
- Turn out the pudding on to a serving plate, decorate with the orange rind, serve the sauce in a jug as you would do cream and serve per person.
