sticky toffee cake with butterscotch sauce

https://ift.tt/3ejrQUh
Excerpt:

“This cake has taken over from tiramisu and chocolate lava cake as today’s dessert of choice. Some restaurants make the mistake of calling this sticky date cake, but many people are put off by the idea of dates and won’t even try it (when you’d taste it you’d never guess it contained dates at all). Even chocoholics love this cake, and it doesn’t contain chocolate.You can make individual cakes if muffin cups and serve with whipped cream or ice cream as well as the sauce.From “Friday Night Dinners” by Bonnie Stern”
