Ingredients
  

8 slices of bread (egg bread or brioche recommended)

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup crushed cornflakes (for coating)

2 large eggs, beaten

Oil for frying (vegetable or canola oil)

Whipped cream (for serving)

Optional: Extra strawberries and mint leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, beat until smooth and creamy. Set aside.

    Assemble the Sandwiches: Lay out the slices of bread. Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture on four slices. Top with sliced strawberries and a pinch of cinnamon. Place the remaining bread slices on top to form sandwiches.

      Set Up for Frying: In three separate shallow bowls, place flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and crushed cornflakes in the third.

        Coat the Sandwiches: Take each sandwich and dip it into the flour, coating both sides. Shake off any excess. Next, dip it into the beaten eggs, letting any excess drip off. Finally, press it into the crushed cornflakes to get a nice coating on both sides.

          Fry the Sandwiches: Heat about 1 inch of oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Once hot (around 350°F/175°C), carefully place the coated sandwiches in the oil. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Do not overcrowd the pan; fry in batches if needed.

            Drain and Cool: Once fried, transfer sandwiches to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Allow them to cool slightly.

              Serve: Slice the sandwiches in half or quarters for easier handling. Serve warm, topped with whipped cream and garnished with extra strawberries and mint leaves if desired.
