Notes

For a richer flavor, add a splash of rum or brandy to the date mixture.
Serve the pudding warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful contrast.
To make it extra indulgent, drizzle caramel sauce over the pudding before serving.
If you prefer a nutty texture, sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts on top before baking.
