TWELVE : CHUNKY MARMALADE BREAD AND BUTTER PUDDING

There's nothing much to say about this very simple dessert, except... it may have just revolutionized breakfast and reminded me exactly why I'm doing this project. Yep, that's all :)

Seems like the perfect quick, weeknight dessert. All I gotta do is make little butter and marmalade sandwiches. Then quarter them, stack them in a baking dish with squares of candied orange peel and fresh orange zest and cover with a quick custard that bakes into fluffy, creaminess.
