Time 1h5m

Yield Serves 10-12

Number Of Ingredients 10

300ml double cream
300ml whole milk
200g dark chocolate, roughly chopped
1 tbsp cocoa powder
4 tbsp caster sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
6 hot cross buns
6 tsp chocolate spread
6 eggs
vanilla ice cream, to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Put the cream, milk, 100g of the dark chocolate, the cocoa powder, sugar, vanilla and a pinch of salt in a saucepan over a low-medium heat and whisk until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Pour into a large bowl to cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, split the hot cross buns and spoon 1 tsp chocolate spread over the base of each, then sandwich with the bun tops. Arrange the buns in a 5cm-deep, 30 x 20cm baking dish in a single layer, then sprinkle over the rest of the chopped dark chocolate.
  • When the chocolate cream mixture has cooled to room temperature, whisk in the eggs. Slowly pour this custard over the hot cross buns, then cover and chill for 1 hr until some of the custard has been absorbed by the buns.
  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Bake for 40-45 mins until the top is golden and the custard is gently set. Leave to stand for 5 mins, then serve with ice cream, if you like.
