I made this with 12 real eggs [4 eggs = 1 cup egg substitute] and thick, sturdy bread. My 8 year old nephew ate two huge helpings and would not leave a morsel on his plate. My sister-in-law says that's all he ever asks for for breakfast now and she's about to give him to me over it!

Gosh, Country 21, I've nevr heard of so much trouble with the recipe. I must admit I nevr figured out why the cream cheese....but I use it and all is well. Too bad it didn't work for you.lynrobi

For me, this was a sloppy mess from the beginning. The recipe seemed to produce too much egg mixture, but I poured all of it over the bread anyway. In the morning, the bread was soggy to the point of near disintegration. I was hoping that perhaps this was expected, and that baking would salvage it. No such luck. The outside was overdone, the inside was still a mushy mess, and no one could even taste the cream cheese. Anyone have any suggestions? Or a similar experience?

PS: I did just remember that my recipe calls for 'good' bread. We use a firm bread like Arnold or Pepperidge Farm. Also, stale, or old, bread would work very well. I can see where a very soft bread might get soggy, but honestly I think it would be fine as well, but if you are worried about that just let the softer bread get a bit 'stale' or old.....not real hard - just a bit. Just let it sit out on the counter for a few hours.lynrobi

I have used this recipe for a few years now.... we don't call it 'stuffed' but it is still the same one and it is by far the very best for making ahead.The bread doesn't get soggy at all. You must try it to see and yuo will absolutely love it forever..... especially if you like french toast.We always make it for company and it is good to take to work for a brunch. It reheats well in the micro wave and I am told it freezes well but we never have any leftover!Hope you enjoy it! Wish I had posted it myself.. why do we always put things off til later?!lrobi

Doesn't the bread get soggy from sitting in the milk mixture?
