Blueberry French Toast Souffle image

This is the most impressive, yet easiest, brunch dish. You make it the night before, then just pop it in the oven. Everyone raves! I have used skim milk and reduced fat cream cheese with excellent results. I have also used raspberries and it was delicious. When berries are not in season, I use unsweetened frozen berries and it is perfect!!! Cooking time does NOT reflect the overnight stay in the refrigerator.
