Ingredients

60g unsalted butter, room temperature
6 x chocolate hot cross buns, tops sliced off and the base sliced in half again
1 x 190g Belgian milk chocolate blocks, cut into chunks
4 whole eggs
1½ cup full cream milk
1 cup pouring cream
Vanilla ice-cream, to serve

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C fan-forced. Grease a circular oven proof dish.
Butter each slice of your hot cross bun (even the lid) with butter. As you butter, place in rings around the base of the baking dish, feel free to pack them in tightly if needed.
As you go, fill the gaps between your buns with Woolworths Belgian Milk Chocolate. Prepare the custard mix by whisking together the eggs, milk and cream.
Pour ¾ of the custard mix over the buns. Top with the Hot Cross Bun lids, scatter with any remaining chocolate and then pour over the remaining custard mix.
Bake for 20–25 minutes or until cooked.
