 Ingredients List

  • 2 1 inch thick diagonal
  • Slices
  • 1/8 ts Cinnamon
  • Italian or french bread
  • 1 1/2 tb Unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 oz Bittersweet chocolate -- *
  • See
  • Confectioners sugar for
  • 1 lg Egg -- beaten lightly
  • Dusting the french toast
  • 1/4 c Milk
  • Coffee or vanilla ice cream
  • 1 tb Superfine sugar
  • As an accompaniment
  • 1/2 ts Vanilla

 Directions

* Use a good quality chocolate; cut into large pieces. Cut through each
slice of bread horizonally with a serrated knife to within 1/4 inch of the
bottom crust, forming a pocket. Into each pocket stuff half the chocolate,
pressing the openings together. In a shallow bowl or pie plate, whisk
together the egg, milk, superfine sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and a pinch of
salt. Add the filled bread in one layer, and let it soak, turning it
once, for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the bread absorbs most of the egg
mixture. In a heavy skillet heat the butter over moderately low heat until
the foam subsides and in it cook the soaked bread, turning it frequently
with a spatula, for 10 minutes, or until it is crisp and golden. Tranfer
the french toast to heated plates, dust it with the confectioners sugar and
serve it with the ice cream.
