Ingredients

French Toasts:
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup milk of choice
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 4 lices day-old bread of choice
Chocolate Icing:
  • ⅔ cups icing/powdered sugar
  • ¼ cup cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup of warm/boiling water
Raspberry/Strawberry Syrup:
  • ¼ cup Raspberry or strawberry jam
  • 3 tablespoons boiling water
Additional Ingredient:
  • ½ cup desiccated/finely shredded coconut (you won't use it all, but it helps to have this quantity to evenly coat the french toasts)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Whisk eggs and milk together in a wide shallow dish. Add one piece of bread at a time to soak in the egg mix. 
  2. Heat a lightly buttered pan over medium heat. Fry each bread until golden on each side and cooked through. Repeat with each slice.
  3. To Make the Chocolate Icing: In another shallow dish, whisk together the icing sugar and cocoa powder. Add the warm/boiling water and mix until a thick chocolate sauce-like icing forms.
  4. Prepare a separate shallow dish with the coconut and set aside. Dip each french toast into the chocolate icing until all sides are evenly covered; allow any excess icing to drip off, then place each chocolate covered french toast into the bowl of coconut; turning to evenly cover. (Sprinkle coconut over the top to get a good coating.)
  5. To Make the Jam Syrup: combine the jam and water in a serving jug, and whisk until a syrup forms.
  6. Drizzle the jam syrup over the top to serve!
