“We love Ihops stuffed french toast so much we decided to try to come up with one ourselves. This is really delicious.”

• Mix cream cheese filling ingredients in bowl using enough powdered sugar to make a spreading consistency, and set aside.
• Spread out the slices of the cinnamon bread and spread a little cream cheese filling on each and put two together to make a “sandwich”.
• In another bowl mix the 3 eggs, 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tsp vanilla well with a whisk and dip the sandwiches in this mixture and then fry them in a little melted butter until browned on each side.
• We use the large electric griddle for this.
• Top the fried sandwiches with a little powdered sugar dusting and then strawberry sauce and whip cream and serve.
