Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

Butter-flavor cooking spray
3/4 cup hazelnut spread with cocoa
12 slices (1/2 inch thick) French bread
1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts (filberts), toasted
1 cup half-and-half
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
Powdered sugar, if desired

Steps:

  • Spray closed medium-size contact grill with cooking spray; heat for 5 minutes. Spread 1 tablespoon hazelnut spread over 1 side of each bread slice. Sprinkle 6 slices evenly with hazelnuts. Top each with second bread slice, making 6 sandwiches.
  • In shallow bowl or pie plate, beat half-and-half, eggs and vanilla until well blended.
  • Dip 3 of the sandwiches into egg mixture, turning to coat both sides. When grill is heated, place sandwiches on grill. Close grill; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until golden. Repeat with remaining sandwiches. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.
