Ingredients

• 1 cup Milk
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 6 slices Thick-cut bread (like Texas toast or brioche)
• 2 tablespoons Butter (for cooking)
• 1 cup Brown sugar
• 6 tablespoons Softened butter
• 1 tablespoon Ground cinnamon (for filling)
• 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 4 ounces Cream cheese
• 2 tablespoons Milk (for icing)
• 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract (for icing)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk, eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon granulated sugar. Set the mixture aside.

Step 2

In a separate small bowl, combine brown sugar, softened butter, and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon to create the cinnamon roll filling. Mix until smooth and set aside.

Step 3

To prepare the cream cheese icing, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons of milk, and 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth and creamy. Set aside.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Dip each slice of thick-cut bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully coated, but do not oversoak.

Step 6

Place the coated bread slices onto the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Repeat for all slices, adding more butter as needed.

Step 7

Spread a generous layer of the cinnamon roll filling between two slices of French toast to form a stack. Repeat with the remaining slices.

Step 8

Drizzle the prepared cream cheese icing over the top of each French toast stack.

Step 9

Serve warm and enjoy the delicious, cinnamon-infused goodness!
