This past weekend I made the most delectable breakfast for my family and boy was it a hit! If you’ve ever tried the French Toast Napoleon at The Cheesecake Factory, then you already know how rich and yummy this dish is.
They take 3 thick slices of egg bread and soak them in their signature batter then cook until golden brown. The secret to this dish is to let the bread soak in the batter for 10 minutes. This creates a crispy outside with a luscious velvety inside. The addition of strawberries and glazed pecans give this dish a wonderful flavor and texture.
I’ll warn you now, this French toast is devilishly delicious and very filling!
Enjoy!

New Secret Recipe

2 cups French Toast Batter (see below)
6 slices egg bread or Challah bread
1/4 cup melted butter
3 cups strawberries, sliced and tossed with a little sugar
2 cups whipped cream
1/2 cup glazed pecans (readily available at most grocery stores and gourmet markets)
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
Maple syrup, heated
Dip the egg bread in French Toast Batter. Gently squeeze the bread slices in several different spots (especially near the edge/crust) to help absorb the batter. Allow the batter to absorb into the bread while it rests for 10 minutes.
Drizzle melted butter onto a pancake grill or large sauté pan.
Place the soaked egg bread onto the oiled grill and cook until golden brown on both top and bottom (approx. 4 minutes per side).
When the French toast is done, place one slice on the plate. Using a large spoon, sprinkle a some of the sliced strawberries over the top of the French toast, making sure to spread it close to the edge, all the way around. Place the second piece of French toast on top of the first and sprinkle more sliced strawberries over the bread, again, making sure to spread it close to the edge, all the way around. Place the last piece of French toast on top of the others. Sprinkle a little more sliced strawberries on top of the bread, but this time with a little more in the center and allowing some of the strawberries to fall randomly onto the plate around the
French toast. You can also drizzle a little juice around the edge of the French toast. Repeat this procedure with the second plate.
Garnish the French toast with some whipped cream and the glazed pecans. Sprinkle powdered sugar on top and all around the plate.
Serve warm maple syrup on the side. Bon appétit.
French Toast Batter:
4 eggs
1 cup half and half (or milk)
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 tablespoon sugar
3/4 tsp. cinnamon
Put all ingredients into a blender and blend together for a few seconds or until smooth.
Serves 2

Last night I was in the mood for something spicy, so I cooked up a batch of my favorite white chicken chili. I fell in love with this dish the first time I tried it at The Cheesecake Factory. What I love more is how easy it is to make this chili at home — plus I think it tastes even better the next day.
This hearty chili combines chicken, white beans, roasted green chilis and a touch of cream to create a wonderfully spicy dish. To easily roast your peppers, place them in a toaster oven on high for about 8 minutes on each side or until the skin begins to bubble. Remove and once cool enough to handle, you can peel the skin off and remove the seeds. Serve this chili with some steamed rice and fresh salsa.
Enjoy!

Let the cheesecake cool completely in its pan on a wire rack then cover and chill for 4 hours.
To prepare the chocolate cake:
