Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 4-cup muffin tin.

In a separate bowl, cream together softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

Chef's Tips

For a richer flavor, add a tablespoon of molasses to the pudding batter.

Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra decadent treat.

The salted caramel sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator. Reheat gently before serving.

If you don't have individual muffin tins, you can bake this recipe in a small loaf pan, just increase the cooking time.
