Meanwhile, beat the eggs until light and foamy. Gradually add the granulated sugar, beating until thick and blended. Beat in the tangerine juice, remaining 1/3 c. flour, and baking powder.

Remove crust from oven and immediately sprinkle with the chopped chocolate. Evenly spread over the crust as it melts using an offset spatula.

Pour tangerine mixture over the chocolate, being careful not to mix. Put back in the oven and bake for 35-30 min. until golden and custard has set.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
