Commercial Break : Food for the Gods

Today, Sam will demonstrate how to make mommy's favourite Christmas dessert, Food for the Gods.

Combine butter, sugar, corn syrup, prune juice, vanilla and eggs.

Mix in the sifted flour, baking powder, salt. Fold in the dates. You can put walnuts, but since this is a kid-friendly dessert, this version does not have it.

Line the baking tray with wax paper and pour in the mixture.

Bake at 160C for 45 minutes.

Sam's blue plate is first in line.

WOW. The top part tastes like toffee. WOW.

Mmmmm....
