How To Make Red Velvet French Toast

In a bowl, whisk the eggs, buttermilk, sugar, vanilla, cocoa and food coloring until the mixture is smooth

Warm a large nonstick skillet over low to medium heat so the bread cooks through without browning too quickly.

Add a few pieces at a time and cook until the outside is lightly crisp and the center feels set.

Beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla bean paste in a bowl until the mixture becomes smooth

Spread a spoonful of cheesecake filling over six toast halves and top each one with another piece.

Drizzle stuffed pieces with chocolate and dust with icing sugar.
