- Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, and diced strawberries until smooth. Adjust sweetness if desired.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Spread the filling evenly between two slices of bread and press them together gently.
- Dip into Egg Mixture: Whisk eggs, milk, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a separate bowl. Coat each sandwich thoroughly in this mixture.
