Ingredients:

Serving

6 slices italian bread (preferably a day old) or 6 slices french bread, cut diagonally 1-inch thick ( preferably a day old)
3 oz semisweet chocolate
6 tsp unsalted pistachio nuts, chopped
3 large eggs
3/4 cup milk
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp nutmeg, ground
1/4 cup butter (1/2 stick) or 1/4 cup margarine (1/2 stick)
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar

Directions:

With a serrated knife, cut a pocket horizontally in each slice o f bread through the top crust. Cut the candy bar into 6 rectangles.
Fill each bread slice with a piece of chocolate and 1 teaspoon pistachios.
In a shallow dish or pie plate, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, and nutmeg.
On a griddle or in a large skillet over medium heat, melt and spread 1 tablespoon butter.
Dip the filled bread slices, one at a time, into the egg mixture, turning to coat both sides and being careful not to squeeze out the chocolate filling.
Cook the slices, several at a time, on the hot griddle until they are browned on both sides.
Add more butter as needed.
Transfer the French toast to heated plates and dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving.
