Make pancakes  and keep them warm. To make the filling: bring the milk and sugar to the boil, then add the nuts. Simmer the mixture, stirring all the time, until it thickens and a custard forms. Add the candied orange peel, raisins, and rum. Fill the pancakes with the custard. Fold the pancakes over twice, into a fan shape, and arrange them on a serving dish. Keep them warm.

To make the sauce:

Mix together 200 ml of the milk with the sugar, and vanilla sugar. Bring to a boil and melt the chocolate in the hot milk. Whisk together the remaining cold milk, egg yolks, cocoa powder, and flour until foaming, then add it to the chocolate mixture, stirring all the time. Bring the sauce to the boil again, then remove from the heat and add the rum and softened butter. Pour the chocolate sauce over the pancakes and serve immediately.
