Ah, french toast. I’m into it. One thing that can make me even more all about it is loading some soft bread up with something fruity and sweet. Strawberry cream cheese plus marshmallow fluff plus lots of sliced strawberries. There is nothing subtle about it. It would be wrong for me to not forewarn you this may lead to an immediate need to have a glorious sunday nap upon completion. Also a large glass of water but it is all okay, there’s a time for this sort of thing.

8 ounces strawberry cream cheese

In a separate bowl, whisk eggs. Add in milk and vanilla, continuing to whisk.
Slice italian bread into 1 and 1/2 inch pieces, with an additional slice going 3/4 of the way through in the middle of each piece. Spoon strawberry filling into opening.
