Sticky Date Pudding With Caramel Sauce is a Southern Treat!

Sticky Date Pudding is an easy dessert that is great anytime of the year. This recipe has been a tradition in my family for as long as I can remember and we always bake the Date Pudding in a cast iron skillet.  Date Pudding bakes with a luscious gooey layer of caramel sauce under the tender cake that is filled with dates and pecans.  Scoop up some Sticky Date Pudding and top it off with a big dollop of Homemade Whipped Cream and get ready to swoon!
