Method

1.Preheat oven to moderate, 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Grease 6 x 1-cup pudding basins or heatproof cups. Line bases with baking paper.

2.To make sauce: In a jug, combine all ingredients. Divide half the sauce evenly among basins.

3.Using an electric mixer, beat sugar and egg until thick. Beat in butter. Dissolve coffee in milk. Lightly fold through flour, alternatively with milk mixture. Fold in dates. Spoon mixture evenly among dishes until 2/3 full. Smooth tops.

4.Line a baking dish with a tea towel. Transfer basins to dish and add enough hot water to come halfway up the sides. Cover pan with baking paper and foil. Bake 50-55 minutes, until puddings are cooked when tested.

5.Heat remaining sauce in a saucepan 1-2 minutes, stirring, until thickened slightly. Serve puddings hot with sauce and whipped cream.
