Going to make this tonight. Sounds so yummy :)

Will use Uni's amount of sugar: 100g. Recipe mentions soft brown sugar for the sauce. Anyone tried it with dark brown sugar?

If the sauce is made in advance and left in the fridge to thicken, will it still be easy to pour? How about the puddings? Make them earlier, and heat in the microwave before serving? Or pop them back into the warm oven to stay warm?

Are the puds nicer baked or steamed?

Beezeebee, I've always steamed them in individual plastic ramekins and then microwaved to reheat, just be careful to not over heat. The sauce will thicken in the fridge and need warming to thin it back out.

Thanks Wonder. How long do you steam them? Until completely set and solid? Or a little wobbly?

I've never eaten or made these delights before ;D

Thank you.  I must go through my books again, and not buy New Ones!

Success! Baked the puds in the oven. Muffin pan. About 20 mins.

Made the sauce 3 hours before serving. Heated in the microwave to take the chill out. Thicker consistency vs when it was freshly made. Dark brown sugar gave it a dark glossy look and almost coffee-like aroma. Too sweet though. Will need to reduce sugar.

Often make this one,  but double the sauce.  Nice to see you back.

I'm going to make this today. Have made it before and it always turns out great. Just wondering if anyone has tried it with just adding the butter and sugar and rest of ingredients to the mix rather than taking out the date mixture? Am just trying to simplify the steps.
