Ingredients
- 8 slices brioche or challah bread
- 4 oz cream cheese softened
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar plus more for dusting
- ½ cup fresh strawberries sliced
- ¼ cup strawberry jam
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tbsp milk
- 2 tbsp butter for frying
Instructions
Make the Cheesecake Filling
- In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and fluffy.
Assemble the Sandwiches
- Spread the cream cheese filling on one side of four bread slices.
- Top with sliced strawberries and a spoonful of strawberry jam.
- Close each with a second slice of bread to form four full sandwiches.
Prepare the Egg Dip
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, coating both sides evenly like French toast.
Fry the Sandwiches
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tbsp of butter. Place two sandwiches in the skillet at a time and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Repeat with remaining sandwiches, adding more butter as needed.
Serve Warm
- Remove from the skillet and let them drain briefly on a paper towel. Dust generously with powdered sugar. Slice diagonally and serve immediately.
