Toffee Cake with Butterscotch Sauce.

Hello everybody.

No cooking today,still have enough food from yesterday,however this doesn’t mean no kitchen-ing at all. To tell you the truth I feel weird if I did nothing 🙂

I had visitors coming afternoon,one of them loves anything to do with dates,so this cake will be perfect,though it says toffee but main ingredient is date,and the sauce goes along great with it.

Ingredients and method:

* 3/4 cup brown sugar.

* 3/4 cup vegetable oil.

* 3 eggs.

* 1 1/2 cups chopped pitted dates.

* 1 cup boiling water.

* 1 tsp sodium bicarbonate.

* 1 tsp ginger.

* 1 tsp vanilla.

* 3 tsp baking powder.

* 1 tablespoon molasses.

*  1 3/4 whole wheat flour.

 

* Add water, molasses and bicarbonate on dates,cover and leave to cool.

* Beat sugar and oil till creamy.

* Add eggs and vanilla,then ginger

* Add baking powder and flour .

* Add the date mixture and beat for 2 minutes.

* Bake in a medium heated oven for 30-35 minutes.
