Chop 250g pitted dates, add 1/2 cup of boiling water and 1 tsp bicorbonate of soda and leave for 30 minutes. Alternately, it also works if you microwave them for a minute or so.
mix 125g butter, 1 cup brown sugar, vanilla extract, 2 eggs, 1.75 cups of self-raising flour (or plain, with baking powder, which is what I normally do.)
Mixy mixy, add the dates, pour into tin, bake at 180 for 30 to 40 minutes.
Caramel sauce
heat 1 cup brown sugar, 300ml thickened cream, vanilla extract, and 60g butter until they're thick an delicious. Honestly, you don't need the butter. But it's in the recipe so there we are. And you might as well double the quantities because the sauce is divine.
