4. Roll out the pastry and use it to line a loose-based 20cm tart ring. Line with baking parchment, fill with baking beans and bake blind for fifteen to twenty minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.

5. Preheat the oven to 170ºC/gas 3.

6. Prepare the filling. Melt the butter and chocolate together in a bowl suspended over a saucepan of simmering water.

7. In a mixing bowl, whisk the sugar, whole eggs, extra egg yolks together using a hand blender.

8. Fold the whisked egg mixture into the chocolate mixture.

9. Spoon the marmalade into the pastry case and spread out. Pour over the chocolate mix and bake for fifteen minutes.
