You might not believe it is possible to lose weight while on a diet plan which includes australian sticky date pudding but it is feasible. It is crucial to not eat australian sticky date pudding or other high calorie desserts every day but in moderation.

As an example, I allow myself moderately high calorie food once per week. I eat a calorie controlled diet for 6 days of the week, say 1500 to 1600 calories each day, and then on the 7th day, I eat whatever I want – within reason of course.

I have been using this method for the last 6 weeks and it has enabled me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise plan or taken any vitamins or diet drinks. I have just been careful of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I want one day a week.

I also find it makes things easier if you have a little support when on a weight loss program and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to help you monitor your progress and achieve your goals.

Australian Sticky Date Pudding (Cake)

Posted by CookinMom at recipe goldmine.com May 14, 2001

This Australian recipe, a very moist, scrumptious cake (not what we’d call a pudding) has taken Down Under by storm. You’ll find it on restaurant and dinner party menus across that country.

Cake
1/2 cup butter, room temperature, cut into eight
    pieces plus extra to butter pan
1 1/4 cups chopped pitted dates
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder

Caramel Sauce
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch round baking pan with sides at least 2 inches high, such as a springform pan.

Place the dates in a saucepan and cover with water (about 1 1/2 cups). Bring to a boil, reduce to simmer and cook for 3 minutes. Add the baking soda (the mixture will foam) and set aside.

In a bowl, cream the cut up butter, sugar and eggs, adding the eggs one at a time. Gently mix in the flour, salt and vanilla. Slowly stir in the baking powder and 1/4 cup of the liquid from cooking the dates, until the cake mixture resembles thick pancake batter. Drain off remainder of date cooking liquid and discard. Stir in the dates.

Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until cooked in the center.

Sauce: Combine the butter, whipping cream, brown sugar and vanilla extract. Bring to a boil; reduce to simmer, and cook for 3 minutes.

To serve: Drizzle some of the sauce over the cake as it is cooling.

Serve remaining sauce separately.

Makes 10 servings.
