Ingredients
Scale
Protein and Eggs:
- 2 large eggs
Cookie Dough Components:
- ½ cup (65 grams) all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup (55 grams) unsalted butter, softened
- ¼ cup (50 grams) brown sugar
- ¼ cup (45 grams) mini chocolate chips
Liquid and Flavoring Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 slices brioche or thick-cut bread
- ½ cup (120 milliliters) milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons butter
Garnish:
- Powdered sugar
- Maple syrup
- Extra chocolate chips
Instructions
- Neutralize potential flour-borne bacteria by spreading the flour on a baking sheet and heating in the oven at 350°F, stirring midway to ensure even temperature distribution. Allow the flour to cool completely to room temperature.
- Cream together softened butter and brown sugar in a mixing bowl, whipping until the mixture transforms into a light, fluffy consistency with no visible sugar granules.
- Incorporate milk and vanilla extract into the butter-sugar blend, stirring until a smooth, homogeneous mixture forms. Gradually fold in the cooled, heat-treated flour, ensuring even integration.
- Gently fold mini chocolate chips into the developing cookie dough mixture, distributing them evenly throughout the preparation.
- Transfer the mixture to a sealed container and refrigerate for optimal texture and flavor development. For a firmer consistency, allow the mixture to chill for at least 30 minutes before serving or using as a topping.
Notes
- Heat-treat flour thoroughly to eliminate harmful bacteria, ensuring food safety for raw cookie dough components.
- Sift treated flour after cooling to break up any clumps and create a smoother mixture for the French toast coating.
- Consider using alternative flour types like almond or gluten-free options for those with dietary restrictions or preferences.
- Experiment with different chocolate chip varieties such as dark, white, or butterscotch chips to customize the flavor profile of your cookie dough French toast.
