- Serves 4-6
- Ready in 20 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 loaf white farmhouse bread
- 140g milk chocolate spread
- 2 medium free-range eggs
- 100ml double cream
- 100g caster sugar
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- knob of butter
Method
- Cut 8 thin slices from a loaf of white farmhouse bread. Spread 4 of the slices generously with 140g milk chocolate spread and top with the other slices to make 4 sandwiches. Cut each sandwich in half diagonally.
- In a shallow bowl, beat 2 medium free-range eggs with 100ml double cream. On a plate, mix 100g caster sugar with 2 tsp ground cinnamon. Dip the chocolate sandwiches into the egg and cream mix, soaking well on both sides.
- Heat a knob of butter in a large frying pan and fry the sandwiches in batches for a couple of minutes on each side until golden (you may need more butter). Remove to the plate with the cinnamon sugar and coat both sides of the sandwiches. Serve while still warm and melting.
