Recipe Below: 

3 large hot cross buns,sliced in thirds horizontally. (If using store bought you may need 4-5)
1 tin condensed milk
Zest of 2 oranges
Pinch cinnamon
500ml whole milk
3 x whole eggs
100g chocolate pieces, dark or white
100g browned butter
50g demerara sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla paste

Heat the milk, condensed milk, zest, cinnamon and vanilla in a saucepan. Whisk together the eggs lightly, add in the milk mixture and pass.

Brush the cut sides of the bun slices with butter and lay them with the chocolate in 20cm cake tin lined with parchment or an oven dish, overlapping, using the tops of the buns as the top layer. 

Pour the warm custard over and press with your hands to submerge, leave to soak up
poking holes with a small paring knife to aid absorption.

Sprinkle with demerara and bake 30 mins 150C or until completely set.
