Double Chocolate Cherry Cheesecake French Toast

Decadent Chocolate French Toasts smothered in a creamy chocolate cheesecake filled with juicy cherries, and topped with a rich Chocolate Maple Syrup. Yes. Chocolate Maple Syrup. It is possible.

Well. Where do I start? Everyone…meet my luscious friend.

This was another one of those, ‘I don’t know what I’m doing, just keep going’ moments I have often in the kitchen. I don’t know how this stuff happens, but I’m definitely not complaining.

Fluffy chocolate french toasts is always a good idea. But then filling them with a chocolate cheesecake and then drowning them with maple syrup? Oh good morning.

But…this is not just any maple syrup. I sent a silent prayer to God while whisking some cocoa powder into the syrup. I really really wanted it to work. And when it did, I really really wanted it to taste good.

It may seem like a big ask to whip this up first in the morning, but this took me less than 10 minutes to make. And that’s stopping to think every 15 seconds (give or take) to make sure I kinda knew what I was doing and where I was going.

All I had in my head was the Strawberries ‘n’ Cream French Toasts I made a few weeks ago. That was my vision — only, a chocolate version.

My brain hurts.

Do you see this maple syrup? This choc-ah-olics dreamy maple syrup.

Without syrup or with syrup.

I used thick, chunky sourdough bread for these toasts, which allowed for 6 slices for the quantity of chocolate egg wash (and 3 serves) BUT if using thinner normal sandwich bread slices, the egg wash could easily allow for 8 slices and serve 4. You’re welcome.

    Though Maple and Chocolate have been used together for years (maple cream soft center chocolates) I would suggest something different, how about a drizzle of Hershey’s syrup with a touch of Amaretto to highlight the cherries and then top it all off with some creme fraiche.

    Oh Karina, YOU ARE AMAZING! These will be on my brekkie plate for next Sunday – which sourdough do you use? just asking because of the uniform size instead of the loafy kind of stuff I see around. I’m going to use strawberries – OH YUM!
