    Description

    Indulge in the ultimate dessert mashup. These sticky date cupcakes combine the gooey deliciousness of sticky date pudding with the fluffy sweetness of cupcakes for a treat that hits all the right spots.

    Method

    Step 1 of 4

    Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. Grease a 12-hole (1/3-cup capacity) muffin tray. Place dates, bicarbonate of soda and 1 cup boiling water in a bowl. Stir and set aside for 10 minutes. Using an electric mixer, beat 100g butter with 1/2 cup sugar until pale and creamy. Add eggs, one at a time. Fold in flour and ginger.

    Step 2 of 4

    Stir date mixture until combined. Spoon among prepared holes. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a skewer inserted at centre comes out clean.

    Step 3 of 4

    Meanwhile, to make butterscotch sauce, combine remaining butter, remaining sugar and 1/2 cup thickened cream in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, for 3 minutes or until butter melts and sugar dissolves. Increase heat and bring to the boil. Boil for 3 minutes or until thickened slightly.

    Step 4 of 4

    Using an electric mixer, beat remaining cream in a large bowl until stiff peaks form. Serve cupcakes topped with whipped cream and butterscotch sauce.
