Sticky Toffee Pudding (STP) is a rich, dense, gooey dessert originating from the United Kingdom that can now be found across the world. Often found on a pub's menu, or in British or Commonwealth schools meals, this is a classic dessert that became popular in the 1970s. This recipe makes for a great STP, but without the dates![1] It was published by Tam and Laura under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 License, retrieved 2008-11-29 from http://tamandlaura.blogspot.com/2007/03/how-english-can-you-get.html.

- Boil over medium-high heat until mixture thickens slightly and is deep golden, stirring constantly, about 10 minutes.
