Ingredients
  

For the Cheesecake Filling:

8 oz (1 package) cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped

For the French Toast:

8 slices of thick bread (Challah or Brioche work best)

4 large eggs

1 cup milk

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 tablespoons butter (for cooking)

For Serving:

Fresh strawberries, sliced

Maple syrup

Whipped cream (optional)

Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cheesecake Filling:

    - In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Using a hand mixer, blend until smooth and creamy.

      - Gently fold in the finely chopped fresh strawberries until evenly distributed. Set aside.

        Prepare the French Toast Batter:

          - In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined and frothy.

            Stuff the French Toast:

              - Take two slices of bread and spread a generous amount of the cheesecake filling on one slice. Top with another slice to create a sandwich. Repeat this process for the remaining slices.

                Cook the French Toast:

                  - Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Allow it to melt and coat the pan.

                    - Dip each stuffed sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated. Allow any excess to drip off before placing in the pan.

                      - Cook each stuffed French toast for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Add more butter as necessary for cooking.

                        Serve:

                          - Once cooked, remove from the skillet and allow to cool for a minute. Slice each stuffed French toast in half and arrange on plates.

                            - Top with fresh sliced strawberries, a generous drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of whipped cream if desired, and a light dusting of powdered sugar.

                              Enjoy!

                                - Serve immediately while warm for the best experience!
