Churro Stuffed French Toast with Cinnamon Sugar

Ingredients:

For the French Toast:

4 thick slices of brioche or Texas toast

4 ounces cream cheese, softened

2 tablespoons powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 large eggs

½ cup whole milk

1 teaspoon cinnamon

½ teaspoon nutmeg (optional)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 tablespoons butter (for cooking)

For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:

½ cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon cinnamon

2 tablespoons melted butter

Directions:

In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly between two slices of bread, then top with the remaining two slices, creating a sandwich.

In a shallow dish, whisk together eggs, milk, cinnamon, nutmeg (if using), and vanilla extract.

Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt the butter.

Dip each stuffed sandwich into the egg mixture, coating both sides, and let any excess drip off.

Cook each side for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.

In a separate bowl, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon for the coating.

Brush the cooked French toast with melted butter, then roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.

Serve warm with maple syrup, chocolate sauce, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
