  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch square baking dish with butter.
  3. Cream together 1 stick of softened unsalted butter and 1 cup of dark brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add in 2 large eggs, mix well, then fold in 1 cup of all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder.
  4. Pour the batter into the baking dish and bake for approximately 35 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  5. For the toffee sauce, combine 1 cup of heavy cream, 1 cup of dark brown sugar, and 4 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan. Heat until melted and bubbly, then stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  6. Once the pudding has baked and cooled slightly, cut into squares and drizzle with warm toffee sauce.
