Granted, Tamal's cake was pretty crazy, but if you've never had sticky date pudding, you are missing out. This recipe is the standard in Australia: https://www.stephaniealexander.com.au/what-to-cook/recipes/sticky-toffee-pudding/
Warm, sweet cakey-pudding, toffee sauce, vanilla ice-cream melting into it... so god-damn good.
My favourite reality tv final moment - the first season of Australian Masterchef, when adorable little pepperpot Julie sees her bean-pole husband and sons after winning.
