If you’re wary of baking but dream of chocolate, this dessert will soon be your best friend. Oranges and chocolate go hand in hand, but strawberries and raspberries would work well instead.

Yield: 4 servings

Place orange segments, juice, Grand Marnier, and 2 teaspoons sugar into a small bowl and set aside.

Preheat oven to 325˚F. In a medium saucepan, add milk, cream, and vanilla bean. Bring to a boil. Shut off heat and remove bean.

Add chocolate to a medium bowl and add milk mixture. Whisk well. In a separate bowl, add egg yolks and 2 tablespoons sugar and whisk. Add small amount of chocolate mixture to eggs and mix. Add eggs to chocolate mixture and stir until combined.

Divide mixture equally among 4 (4 oz) ramekins. Place ramekins in a small roasting pan. Fill pan with very hot tap water until water reaches halfway up ramekin. Cover with foil and gently place pan in oven. Cook until custard has set, about 35 minutes. Serve with orange slices and whipped cream, if desired.
