        Method
      

        Step 1

        Preheat oven to 200°C. Line twelve 150ml capacity metal dariole moulds or ramekins with plastic wrap. Combine the mixed fruit and brandy in a large bowl and set aside for 1 hour to macerate.
        Step 2

        Meanwhile, place the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan half-filled with simmering water (make sure the bowl doesn't touch the water) and stir with a metal spoon until melted.
        Step 3

        Crumble the pandoro or brioche into coarse breadcrumbs and place in a bowl. Stir in 55g (1/4 cup) of the sugar. Spread over a baking tray. Bake in oven, stirring occasionally, for 12-15 minutes or until golden. Set aside to cool.
        Step 4

        Use an electric hand beater to whisk together the egg yolks and remaining sugar in a heatproof bowl until fluffy. Place over a saucepan half-filled with simmering water (make sure the bowl doesn't touch the water) and whisk for 5 minutes or until mixture is thick and pale. Remove from heat and continue whisking for 2-3 minutes or until cool.
        Step 5

        Use an electric beater to whisk the cream in a bowl until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the egg-yolk mixture. Stir in the dried-fruit mixture, chocolate, breadcrumb mixture and mixed spice. Spoon among the prepared moulds and smooth the surfaces. Place in the freezer for 6 hours or overnight to freeze.
        Step 6

        To make the sauce, place chocolate and cream in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan half-filled with simmering water (make sure bowl doesn't touch the water) and stir with a metal spoon until chocolate melts and mixture is smooth. Set aside for 20 minutes to cool.
