Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese filling between two slices of your chosen bread, pressing gently to seal.
  3. In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, and a splash of vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Warm up your griddle or skillet over medium heat and add a pat of butter. Quickly dip each sandwich into the custard mixture, coating all sides.
  5. Place the coated sandwiches in the preheated skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  6. Remove the French toast from the skillet and quickly toss each piece in a mixture of sugar and cinnamon.
  7. Slice the Churro Stuffed French Toast into manageable pieces and arrange them on a serving plate. Drizzle with maple syrup or chocolate sauce.
