Company Toast- from Christine Costabile
1 stick butter
1 Cup dk. brown sugar
12 slices white bread (I like the thick texas toast)
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
2 Tbl. white sugar
1 tsp. each - vanilla and cinnamon
(strawberry, raspberry, apricot preserves) optional
*another option I often use, when not using preserves, I cut French bread into thick slices and line those to fill pan in place of sandwich bread)
Melt butter in 9X13 pan. Add brown sugar. Place 6 slices of bread in pan (at this point - if you want - spread preserves on top of bread slices - it's good but not necessary), then top with remaining 6 slices of bread. Mix eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon in blender. When mixed, pour over bread. Cover with foil - refrigerate overnight. Bake 375 uncovered for 45 minutes...cut in diagonal slices and serve warm with syrup and fresh fruit if desired.
