Method
 

Cannoli Filling and French Toast Preparation
  1. Prepare the Cannoli Filling: In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, powdered sugar, and mini chocolate chips. Mix until the filling is smooth and creamy. Set aside.
  2. Make French Toast Batter: In a shallow dish, whisk together eggs, whole milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until homogenous.
  3. Stuff the Bread: Generously spread a portion of the cannoli filling on one slice of thick-cut bread. Top with another slice. Repeat for remaining slices.
  4. Cook the French Toast: Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt butter. Dip each stuffed sandwich in the egg batter, allowing it to absorb, and fry for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  5. Optional: Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving for an extra sweet touch.
