Fresh Amaretto Cream

  • In a small bowl beat whipping cream, powder sugar, and Amaretto Syrup until thickened. DO NOT mix till stiff peaks form. This is just a thick cream to spoon over the berries.

  • Dip each heart sliced piece of bread into the french toast batter. Allow to soak for 1-2 minutes. Flip and allow other side to soak equally.
  • Place each dipped heart on the hot griddle. Cook until golden brown. Flip and cook other side.
  • Place two heart shaped slices of french toast on a plate. Spoon macerated Amaretto berries over the top of the heart shaped french toast. Drizzle with Amaretto cream. Sprinkle with Powder Sugar. Serve warm.
