Ingredients

Scale

4 oz cream cheese

softened

2 tbsp powdered sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

8 slices thick-cut bread (brioche or Texas toast works best)

2 large eggs

1/2 cup milk

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

2 tbsp granulated sugar

Pinch of salt

2 tbsp butter (for frying)

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth to create the filling.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt to prepare the French toast batter.
Spread a generous amount of the cream cheese filling on four slices of bread, then top with the remaining four slices to create sandwiches.
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
Dip each sandwich in the French toast batter, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side.
Place the soaked sandwiches in the skillet and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
While the French toast is cooking, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon together in a shallow dish.
Once cooked, immediately roll the French toast in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat.
Slice and serve warm, drizzled with maple syrup if desired.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding chocolate chips to the cream cheese filling or serving with fresh fruit.
