- Transfer the cream and egg mixture to a 9x13 baking dish.
- Heat a large cast-iron griddle over moderate heat and lightly butter it.

Steps:
- In a large shallow dish, beat eggs with a fork. Beat in liqueur, sugar, large pinch of salt, and orange zest and juice. Add milk and beat until combined.
- In a large heavy skillet, heat 4 tablespoons oil and 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high until sizzling. Gently dip brioche, one slice at a time, into egg mixture to coat and add to skillet (do not crowd pan). In batches, cook until golden brown on both sides, 5 minutes per batch, flipping once. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined wire rack. Repeat with remaining brioche, adding remaining oil and butter as needed. (Reduce heat if brioche is browning too quickly.) Serve with butter and sugar or maple syrup.

GRAND MARNIER FRENCH TOAST
This french toast has an orange flavor that goes well with any fruit syrup or maple syrup. Make sure to let the bread soak up enough of the egg mixture and to cook it long enough to heat through.
