How To Make strawberry cream cheese french toast

Step 1Spray a 13 x 9 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Put half of the cubed french toast in the bottom of the baking dish. Set aside. In a medium bowl, cream together the cream cheese and the sugar. Drop by small dollops on top for french toast. In the same bowl, mix together the eggs, half and half and cinnamon until well blended. Pour half of the egg mixture on top of the cream cheese. Layer on the other half of the french bread and top with the remaining egg mixture. Cover with tin foil and refrigerate overnight.
