Instructions

In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and spreadable.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture onto four slices of bread, then top with the remaining slices to make sandwiches.
In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt.
Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully soaked.
Heat butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook the sandwiches for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crisp.
In a separate bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.
While the French toast is still warm, press each sandwich into the cinnamon sugar to coat both sides.
Slice the French toast into halves or quarters and serve immediately with optional toppings like maple syrup, fresh berries, or whipped cream.

Notes

Try Nutella or peanut butter instead of cream cheese for a different twist.

Add banana or strawberry slices inside the sandwich for a fruity variation.

Use half-and-half instead of milk for a richer custard.

For a dairy-free version, use plant-based cream cheese and almond milk.

To reheat, use a toaster oven or skillet for the best texture.
