    Start by washing the strawberries thoroughly, then slice them into small pieces and set aside.

    2

    In a mixing bowl, blend the cream cheese until smooth. Mix in half of the sliced strawberries until well combined.

    3

    Spread the cream cheese and strawberry mixture between two slices of bread to create stuffed sandwiches. Repeat with the remaining slices, making four stuffed sandwiches in total.

    4

    In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined.

    5

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, dip one stuffed sandwich into the egg mixture, coating both sides well, and place it in the skillet.

    6

    Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Repeat for the remaining sandwiches, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.

    Once cooked, transfer the stuffed toast to a plate and dust with powdered sugar. Arrange the remaining strawberry slices on top for garnish.
