Craving time!

I want a pudding with butterscotch or caramel sauce. I don't care which one, I just want one of them!

SO all the recipies I find are sticky date puddings, but I'm difficult and don't like dates. Do you need them? Can I just leave the dates out?

Any other alternatives? I was thinking carrots, because carrot cake and caramel go well, except I forgot to buy carrots (and I've been out twice today... once for grocery shopping, and another time to pick up all the things I forgot to get the first time!). So not really interested in going out AGAIN because I forgot something else

Share your wisdom!!!!
