Description
A delightful blend of creamy cheesecake goodness and fluffy French toast filled with fresh strawberries.
Ingredients
- 4 slices of bread
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 cup strawberries, sliced
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Powdered sugar for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Combine the softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth and creamy.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture generously on one side of each slice of bread.
- Press the sliced strawberries into the cream cheese side of two slices to create sandwiches, topping with the other two slices, cream cheese side down.
- Whisk together the eggs and milk in another bowl.
- Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat until melted.
- Dip each sandwich in the egg mixture, allowing them to soak for a few seconds on each side.
- Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook until golden brown, around 3-4 minutes on each side.
- Serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar, and topped with additional strawberries if desired.
Notes
Use thick slices of bread like brioche or challah for the best texture and soak time.
