I dipped 5 slices of the brioche bread in an egg mixture with cinnamon and vanilla. I found that these basic french toast ingredients brought out the flavor and richness of the bread. Since the bread already had chocolate in it, it seemed almost too decadent for breakfast, though then I reconsidered and decided it would be a perfect way to surprise someone on an anniversary or a birthday in the morning:
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp cinnamon
3 eggs
1 tbsp butter
1/2 a loaf of chocolate brioche bread
