Start the day off right with this dreamy, creamy breakfast treat from Lesa Michelle Hefner of Elk City, Oklahoma. âMy husband and I first tasted this delicious dish at a bed and breakfast where we celebrated our anniversary,â she shares. âItâs really easy to prepare but tastes like you fussed.â Ingredients:
2 packages (3 ounces each) cream cheese, softened |
1/2 cup marshmallow creme |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 cups sliced fresh or frozen strawberries |
1/4 cup sugar |
1-1/2 teaspoons cornstarch |
1 tablespoon cold water |
3 eggs |
3/4 cup milk |
8 slices french bread (1 inch thick) |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, marshmallow creme and vanilla until smooth; set aside.
2. For syrup, in a small saucepan, bring strawberries and sugar to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Combine the cornstarch and cold water until smooth; stir into berry mixture. Return to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; keep warm.
3. In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs and milk; dip both sides of bread in egg mixture. On a lightly greased hot griddle, cook bread over medium heat for 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. To serve, spread each piece of French toast with cream cheese mixture; top with strawberry syrup. Yield: 4 servings.
