Cut the panettone into thin slices about 1/4 inch thick and place them in the cake pan, pressing well to adhere and cover the bottom and sides without leaving any gaps.
Pour half of the cream into the prepared shell, leveling it.
Cut the remaining panettone into pieces and distribute them on the cream in the cake pan.Cover with the remaining cream.
Distribute the orange marmalade in scattered spoonfuls over the cream and then sprinkle the entire surface of the cake with chocolate chips.
Bake in a preheated oven at 392°F in fan mode for half an hour.
