Gather your ingredients; bread, 2 whipped eggs, milk, cocoa powder,
Morello cherries , kirschwasser, vanilla extract, chocolate bar, you will also need butter for frying.

To the cherries I simmered them in a little Kirschwasser, and sugar to make a nice syrup.

Add the cocoa powder, Kirschwasser, and vanilla to the milk and mix making a chocolate milk. If you like
it a little sweeter add a tablespoon of sugar. Then put in a glass baking dish, and add the bread to soak on both sides,
absorbing most of the chocolate milk.

Heat a skillet on low, add butter to melt, then carefully lift the soaked bread slices one by one dipping into the egg mix on both sides,
then add to skillet.

I like to fry on medium low so it doesn't get brown too fast. This is up to you, but you will have to watch
it close.

I find it easier to turn this delicate toast using 2 utensils. I lift it up with a silicone spatula, then I
Can get my larger turner underneath, then I can steady it with one and flip it over.

I mixed the leftover egg and milk and mixed it and poured it into the skillet, so as not to waste it.
You can add it to the plate or just eat it separate.

For the vanilla sauce you can use whipped cream, sour cream or yogurt, add some sugar, and vanilla extract
and mix.

To assemble; place 2 pieces of toast on a warmed plate, top with sauce then cherries. Spoon some of the
syrup from the cherries, and sprinkle with powdered sugar and cocoa through something you can sift with
like a strainer.

This little kitchen tool has been so useful to me. You probably don't use powdered sugar every day but when you do need it this will store a good cup and has a nice screen on top so you can sprinkle it on cookies, cakes, French toast and then put the cap on to store.
