INSTRUCTIONS
BLACK FOREST SAUCE
FRENCH TOAST
Make Black Forest sauce first: in a saucepan, heat cherries & juice.
Stir in sugar & vanilla. In a separate bowl, mix water & cornstarch.
Stir into cherries, simmering until thickened, stirring frequently.
Stir in nutmeg. Keep warm. In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until
smooth. Stir in shaved chocolate or miniature chips. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla & optional salt.
Slice French bread into 12 slices, each 1 to 11/2 inches thick. Then
slice a pocket into the middle of each slice. Fill each pocket with
1/2 to 1 tablespoon cream cheese mixture. Dip bread slices into egg
batter on both sides. Place on a hot griddle and brown. Turn and
brown the other side (keep slices in a warm oven, if necessary, while
finishing all 12 slices).
To serve, place two slices on each plate and top with about 3/4 cup
warm Black Forest sauce. Enjoy! Makes 6 servings.
