Cinnamon Raisin Stuffed French Toast

I know its not the dinner of champions, but it sure tasted good and was quick!! The boys loved it and now are swinging from the rafters from the sugar overload. Wait...this might not have been the best decision for an evening desiring an early bedtime. The fights, the screams, the playing, the yelling...it will all wear off eventually.

Ingredients:

1pkg softened Philly cream cheese

2Tbs Sugar Cinnamon Mix

2 Eggs

8 slices of Cinnamon raisin bread

1Tbs of Butter

In one bowl, Mix 1Tbs of Sugar Cinnamon Mix with cream cheese for the stuffing. Take 1 slice of bread and spread on the filling. Top with a slice of bread. Continue until you have 4 french toast sandwiches. Heat the butter in a skillet on Medium high heat.

In another bowl, beat 2 eggs with 1Tbs of Sugar Cinnamon Mix. Dip one frech toast sandwich into the egg mixture, flip then put into the skillet. Continue until all 4 are in the skillet. Grill on each side for 2 minutes. Serve warm with sliced bananas and warm butter maple syrup.

YUMM!!!

A long lost friend...

I'm sitting at home today, enjoying the peace of quiet in the house while fighting a nasty virus. So what makes us feel better?? A giant bowl of ice cream, Blue Bell Chocolate Cookie dough to be exact. Upon opening the utensil drawer, there it was...my long lost friend, my spring ice cream scoop. For those of you that have read my blog for some time, this is THE ITEM i use to properly fill my cupcake liners. Without my friend, my cupcakes would be too under filled or too overfilled. It truly delivers the perfect portion to every liner. And it got me to thinking, where has it been? Where have I been? When was the last time I made cupcakes and really blogged about the experience?

The answer was far more disturbing that the questions, but I went there anyway. So I'm vowing, to give you all what you want and what my spring ice cream scoop NEEDS...more cupcakes!!! When, I'm not sure at this moment as i can't think completely straight right this instance. But I promise. More cupcakes. More kid pictures, updates and funny saying. But more importantly more food blogging!! Foodbuzz is starting a competition in July and I'm IN!! yep, you read that right. I'm in. I'm going to use the challenge as a great way to upstart my food blogging again. And maybe, just maybe when all is said and done, i will have created some great new creations to feature as the imaginary restaurant my sweet husband and I are still developing. So stay tuned... and give your ice cream scoop a workout for me!
