anyone know?

What for? Just for over a dessert? The sauce I make for my sticky date puddings is yummy, very rich and caramelly, runny when hot but thickens up when cool. Not sure how it keeps if you want to keep it for a while, though, as it never lasts long around here!

The recipe is at the bottom of this post: http://www.mrscake.co.nz/2010/06/sticky-date-pudding.html

Place a cup of cream and brown sugar to your taste in a microwave proof bowl/jug. Zap one minute, stir, then zap till as hot as you want. Stir and enjoy..
