For the Filling:
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
For the French Toast:
- 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)
For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar

- Prepare the Filling: In a small bowl, mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Spread the mixture on 4 slices of bread, then top with the remaining slices to form sandwiches.
- Make the Egg Mixture: In a shallow dish, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, sugar, and salt.
- Cook the French Toast: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt butter. Dip each stuffed sandwich into the egg mixture, coating both sides evenly. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
- Coat in Cinnamon Sugar: In a shallow dish, mix sugar and cinnamon for the coating. Immediately after cooking, coat each French toast in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Serve & Enjoy: Serve warm with maple syrup, whipped cream, or chocolate sauce for extra indulgence!
