Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.
- In a bowl, whisk together the Sponge Cake flour, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the buttermilk and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chopped dates.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the Toffee Sauce. In a saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly.
- Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
- Once the cake is out of the oven, poke holes all over the top with a fork.
- Pour the warm Toffee Sauce evenly over the cake. Let cool slightly before serving.
