Enjoy a truffle tasting experience at home!

Truffles found on our farm are the result of hard work, passion and our overall philosophy of excellence.

Our value-added truffle products are a true testament to this, and one we are truly proud of.

While nothing beats fresh truffle, in Australia fresh truffles are only available from June to the end of August, however our high-quality range of truffle aroma enhanced products allows even the novice home cook to enjoy a truffle experience in their own home at any time of the year.

Our extensive recipe catalogue below, can help even the most basic home cook prepare an exquisite snack or meal.

Serves

8

INGREDIENTS

  • 200g pitted dried dates, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
  • 300ml boiling water
  • 75g butter, chopped, plus extra for greasing
  • 170g castor sugar
  • ½ vanilla bean, seeds scraped
  • 2 eggs
  • 170g self-raising flour, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon Truffle Hill Truffle Infused Pink Himalayan Salt
  • Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Butterscotch Sauce

  • 250g salted butter, chopped
  • 300ml single cream
  • 200g brown sugar
  • ½ vanilla bean, seeds scraped and pod reserved

METHOD

Preheat oven to 180°C and grease a 20cm square cake tin. Combine dates and bicarbonate of soda, stir in boiling water, cover and set aside for 20 minutes or so. Meanwhile, make Butterscotch Sauce: combine butter, cream, sugar, vanilla seeds and pod in a small saucepan over medium heat and stir often until butter has melted. Reduce heat to low and cook for 5 minutes, watching it carefully as it may boil over. Discard vanilla pod. Meanwhile place butter, sugar and vanilla seeds in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat until pale and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time. Fold in date mixture then flour. Pour ½ cup of Butterscotch Sauce into the cake tin and top with batter. Place cake tin on an oven tray and bake for about 40 minutes, until a wooden skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. Remove from oven and set aside to cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a baking paper-lined board.
Just before serving, stir pink salt into remaining Butterscotch Sauce and warm over a low heat. Serve pudding warm or at room temperature, with vanilla ice cream and truffled Butterscotch Sauce.
