Instructions

Blackberry Sauce Instructions:

Whisk together sugar, cornstarch, and water in a pot on the stove. Bring to a boil and add the blackberries. Boil for about 5 minutes and remove from the stove. Add in lemon juice and butter.

Stuffed French Toast:

In a mixing bowl, mix together eggs, cream, cinnamon, and vanilla extract.

Make sandwiches by spreading whipped cream cheese onto one side of each slice of bread.

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the butter is melted, dip sandwiches one at a time into the egg mixture and place into a skillet.

Using a spatula, flip the sandwiches over after about 2 minutes (until golden brown), and cook the other side for another 2 minutes.

Cut into triangles and pour blackberry sauce over the toast. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
