Method
 

Step-By-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Assemble the Sandwiches: Spread a layer of cream cheese filling on one slice of bread, then top with another slice to create a sandwich. Repeat until all filling is used.
  3. Make the Egg Mixture: In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined and slightly frothy, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Dip the Sandwiches: Immerse each sandwich in the egg mixture for 15-20 seconds on each side, letting excess drip off before cooking.
  5. Cook the Sandwiches: Heat a skillet over medium heat with butter or oil. Cook sandwiches for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crisp.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Transfer French toast to a plate and garnish with desired toppings like fresh berries or whipped cream.
