1 Put the chocolate, cream, butter, sugar and rum into a heatproof bowl, then heat over a pan of gently simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth. Cool for 10 minutes, then stir in the eggs to make a thick, smooth custard. 2 Slice the panettone and arrange overlapping slices in the ovenproof dish (you may not need it all). Spoon over the chocolate custard, allowing it to soak into the panettone before adding more.
