Recipe Added:  3/14/2012
1 8-oz pkg cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup + 2 Tbsp powdered sugar
1 Tbsp vanilla
1/2 tsp cinnamon
10 slices bread: Texas or French
3 cups strawberries, sliced
4 eggs, beaten
2 1/2 Tbsp milk
 Strawberry Syrup
1/2 cup maple syrup
2 Tbsp orange juice
3/4 cup pureed strawberries
Combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla and cinnamon, and beat until smooth. Spread 1/2 mixture on one side of five slices of bread. Top with most of sliced strawberries. Spread more of remaining mixture on remaining five pieces of bread and place on top, and make five sandwiches, pressing them together gently to enclose strawberries inside. Beat eggs and milk together and set aside.

Preheat oven to 400. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and place in oven. Melt 1/2 Tbsp butter in a frying pan. Place sandwiches in egg and milk mixture, turning so that mixture covers both sides. Transfer sandwich to pan and cook until first side is lightly brown. Flip over and cook other side. When both sides are lightly brown, place sandwich on baking sheet in oven to keep warm. Before serving, top with more strawberries and 2 Tbsp powdered sugar. Drizzle with Strawberry Syrup.

Strawberry Syrup  Combine all the ingredients in a small pan. Stirring constantly, heat mixture over medium heat until it begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. While still warm, pour over French Toast and serve immediately.
