Marmalade-Glazed Croissant Pudding image

This sounds quite fancy but is really just a slightly more decadent version of the good old bread and butter pudding. I add chocolate chips to mine to induce the pickier ones in the household to eat some. I have posted the original recipe, but I always substitute the milk and cream for fat-free versions, and i don't think it makes a difference.
