Cooking time: 1 hour and 15 minutes
1. Prepare the night before or even 2 to 3 days in advance. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Crush cookies in a blender until finely crushed. Add in cinnamon, margarine, and marmalade. Press the crumbs into the bottom of a 2-quart soufflé dish. Bake the crust for 6 minutes. Set aside to cool completely.
2. When crust has cooled, combine the filling ingredients in a blender or food processor. Pour the custard into the soufflé dish on top of the crust. Place the dish inside a pan filled with 1-inch of hot water.
3. Set both pans in the oven and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, until a knife inserted in the center of the custard comes out clean. Chill until mealtime.
