Instructions

Make the Chocolate Orange Custard
1

a) Zest and juice the orange into a small saucepan.

b) Add the creme fraiche, sugar, unsalted butter and two thirds of the chocolate chips. Stir on medium heat until the chocolate chips have melted, 3-4 mins.

c) Set aside to cool for 5-10 mins.

Prep the Bread
2

a) While the custard cools, slice the hot dog buns widthways to create 2cm thick round slices, approximately 6-8 per bun.

b) Once the custard has cooled, add the eggs (see pantry for amount) to the chocolate custard mixture and whisk to combine.

c) Soak the slices of bread in the chocolate custard, 10-15 secs each.

d) Lay each piece vertically in an ovenproof dish. Pour any remaining chocolate custard over the bread and leave to soak for at least 30 mins, or ideally 40-60 mins.

Bake and Serve
3

a) When the pudding has 10 mins of soaking time remaining, preheat your oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6.

b) Sprinkle over the remaining chocolate chips.

c) Pop the pudding in the oven until set and slightly crisp on top, 18-20 mins.

d) Once baked, allow to cool before serving.

Enjoy!
