TV chef Nigella Lawson has shared her recipe for a delicious sticky toffee pudding - and it's ready in less than hour. Sharing the recipe with BBC Food , Nigella wrote: "My STP is altogether deeper and darker than the original version: it is still sweet, but the muscovado sugar and black treacle give it an almost savage intensity. "It seems redolent of ginger, cloves, allspice – and yet none of these spices are used.
It’s a miracle. I don’t understand it – but then, miracles are not to be questioned." This delicious dessert is the perfect choice for hosting guests this Christmas season, and will certainly leave them impressed.
And after serving if you have any left, Nigella says that if you take a slab of it cut from the dish tastes like the most "magnificent sticky gingerbread."
