00:13week with a dessert and my personal favorite, figgy pudding. I can't wait for this. All right,

00:23let's get started. It's so much fun to say. As a matter of fact, why didn't I buy those figgy

00:28puddings at the hotel that were readily available? This is easy. It's so easy even I can do it.

00:34We're going to start with our dates and figs. Okay. Okay. Just throw them into. And then dry figs as well.

00:41You cut them up. Dried figs and dates. And then you're going to. Add a little water.

00:48In a little bit of water. Okay. And then your. Baking soda. Baking soda. And the recipe is on the

01:18second. Just hold on. Okay. Hold your horses. We're going to add some softened butter. Okay.

01:24And soften that means you just leave it out. For a little bit. Right? You could leave

02:42to wind up looking just like this. Okay. Can you add some chocolate chips? Yeah. You added

02:47chocolate chips to it. Chips. Okay.

02:51And then you can either use ramekins, which I like to use, or you can just use a muffin tin.

02:56But you take your butter and you butter your ramekin dishes. That's important, right? Yeah. You want to

03:02make them all nice and buttered. I'll do the rest. Because you don't want it to stick. Okay.

03:07Okay. You got that? Yep. And then you take an ice cream scooper. Okay. And you get a healthy.

03:15Portion of that. Portion of your mixture into each ramekin. Are we doing this this holiday?

03:20Yeah. We are. Okay. And you're going to like it. And you're not going to give me nonsense

03:26about the sugar, there's carbs. No, I love. I love figgy pudding. Okay. And then we are going to put

03:32this in the oven. Just like that. Okay. And we're going to finish. We're going to finish this when we

03:40come back. Stick around. That's right. We're making my personal favorite this morning. Figgy pudding.

03:47Say it with me, everybody. Figgy pudding. Thank you. That's how it has to be said. All right.

03:54We're going to make our sauce while our figgy pudding ramekins are in the oven at 350 degrees

04:01for 20 to 25 minutes. You want to keep your eyeball on them. Don't keep opening and closing

04:07the stove. Just peer in if you can. Okay. So for the sauce that goes on top, we're going to get

04:12like two sticks of butter. Okay. Love that. And some brown sugar. This much brown sugar.

04:18That's a lot. Yep. And believe me, Gilman cut down the sugar. Oh, really? Yeah, he did. He didn't

04:25like the amount of sugar. So, you know, he's a real killjoy. And then heavy cream. Heavy cream.

04:31Yeah, heavy cream. Yeah. This is, come on. It's dessert. It's pudding. It's figgy pudding for the holidays.

04:38Can I whisk that? Yeah. Go ahead. Whisk it up. Okay. Cool.

04:42Let me know if you need a hand. No, I'm good. Okay. Yeah, I got it. Good job. So proud of

04:50you. Is this your first time whisking? It is. I can tell. I can tell just by watching.

04:57All right. What's next? All right. All right. While you're doing that, what we're going to

05:00do is we're going to take our figgy puddings out of the oven. You let them stand for 10 minutes.

05:06You don't want them to be piping hot. After about 10 minutes, you're going to take your beautiful

05:11sauce, which will look like this. Here you go. Look at that. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. These have

05:19been standing. The oven's not on. And then we take our sauce and we just drizzle the sauce

05:26on top. I like to serve them with ice cream or creme fraiche or whipped cream. A dealer's

05:37choice. It's up to you. Gellman, you would like creme fraiche because it's nice and sweet.

05:45Anyway, are you ready to try? Yes. Yes? Yep.

05:47Whip cream? Yeah. Do you want a little whipped cream? Put a little whipped cream on there for me.

05:50All right. All right. It's really, really good. For this recipe and more, head to our website. Next,
