Over all, this was a great success. I made this in a 9 inch pan and it ended up taking 38 minutes to cook for the middle to be set but by then the edge was over done. I scooped out the middle and it was delicious! I wish the recipe had a set amount of caramel sauce to pour on top/reserve for serving. I'll probably double the sauce next time ( it is a keeper on its own). I think I'll try baking this in ramekins, that might solve the cooking time issue, plus they're adorable. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe, it’s one of my favorite desserts but I have never attempted to make it at home before.

This sticky toffee pudding was AMAZING. The recipe was easy to follow, and the result was absolutely delicious. Mine took about 30 minutes to cook, but other than that, it worked perfectly. I also replaced one of the tablespoons of golden syrup with one of treacle, but I honestly don't know if that made a difference. Will definitely make this again!

the recipe does not tell you what to do with the date mixture once you let it cool. On other recipes they are pretty clear about alternating folding in the dry and two components of wet ingredients. Also, it would be helpful if the author had explained why the baking powder is added to the wet ingredients instead of its usual addition to the flour. Is there an advantage/purpose?

Ah, yeah, I forgot to mention to whip the date mixture in after the eggs. I guess I need to learn how to proofread. [walks away in shame]
And the baking powder into the wet ingredients is just because I'm lazy and I didn't want to have to stir it into the flour, which just gets gently folded into the batter (which could leave pockets of baking powder unmixed).
