Instructions

Prevent your screen from going dark as you follow along.

Step 1

To make the Chantilly cream, whip together all the ingredients (whipping cream, icing sugar and brandy) until right before it reaches the soft peak stage.

Step 2

To make the ganache, add the mixed chocolate bars, cream, orange peel to a pan and melt in the Roccbox.

Step 3

Then add a slug of brandy and put the pan back into the Roccbox to flambe.

Step 4

Roll out your leftover pizza dough into an oblong shape.

Step 5

Add the ricotta and chocolate orange segments in a line in the centre of dough.

Step 6

Fold over the dough like a calzone, wrap around and seal the edges to make ring shape.

Step 7

Fire away in Roccbox on a low flame at the front of the oven, then turn up to half flame at 400°C. Give it a full turn, check the bottom is cooked.

Step 8

Top with the chocolate orange ganache, Chantilly cream, orange zest and biscuit crumb for some added crunch. Finish by sprinkling with icing sugar.
