For the sauce
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan) or Gas Mark 4. Grease a wide, shallow 1.7-litre (3-pint) ovenproof dish with butter.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter, sugar, eggs, flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, and treacle. Use an electric whisk to beat the mixture for about 30 seconds, or until the ingredients are well incorporated.
Gradually add the milk, continuing to whisk until the batter is smooth and fully combined. Pour the batter into the prepared dish and bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the pudding has risen and springs back when gently pressed in the centre.
To prepare the sauce, combine all the ingredients in a saucepan and heat gently, stirring until the sugar dissolves and the butter melts. Turn up the heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly for a minute.
Once the pudding is ready, drizzle half of the sauce over it in the dish. Serve with a generous dollop of cream or ice cream for an ultimate indulgent dessert.
