# Ce dont tu as besoin:

→ French Toast

01 - 8 slices thick bread (brioche or challah preferred)
02 - 4 large eggs
03 - 1 cup whole milk
04 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
05 - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
06 - 2 tablespoons sugar
07 - 2 tablespoons butter (for frying)

→ Churro Filling

08 - 1 cup Nutella (or any chocolate hazelnut spread)
09 - 1/2 cup cream cheese (softened)
10 - 1/4 cup powdered sugar

→ Topping

11 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
12 - 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
13 - Chocolate syrup (for drizzling)
14 - Fresh berries (optional)

# Étapes à suivre:

01 - In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, Nutella, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
02 - In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined. This mixture will give your French toast its rich flavor.
03 - Take a slice of bread and spread a generous amount of the churro filling on one side. Top with another slice of bread to create a sandwich. Repeat for the remaining slices.
04 - In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Make sure the pan is hot enough so that the butter sizzles when you add the sandwiches.
05 - Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
06 - In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Once the sandwiches are cooked, immediately coat them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture for that classic churro flavor.
07 - Drizzle with chocolate syrup and serve warm, topped with fresh berries if desired.
