Ingredients
Co-op plain flour, for dusting
270g Co-op ready rolled shortcrust pastry
180g Co-op Irresistible Fairtrade 70% cocoa dark chocolate, broken into pieces
180ml Co-op single cream
1/2tsp cinnamon
2 Co-op British eggs, beaten
32g bar chocolate honeycomb, broken into pieces
Method
Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan 180°C/Gas 6
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pastry enough to line a 20cm loose-bottomed flan tin
Press the pastry into the edges
Line the base with greaseproof paper and weigh down with baking beans or dried pasta
Bake for 15 mins, until the edges turn pale golden
Remove the beans and paper, and bake again for 2 mins to crisp the base
Remove from the oven, leave to cool, then trim any excess
Turn the oven down to 150°C/fan 130°C/Gas 2
Melt the chocolate and cream in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water, making sure the base doesn’t touch the surface, stirring occasionally
Remove from the heat, stir in the cinnamon and egg, then pour into the pastry case
Bake for 15-20 mins until set
Remove and leave to cool, then scatter over the honeycomb pieces
