Step 1
Spread cream cheese on two bread slices, then layer with strawberry slices. Top with remaining bread to make 2 sandwiches.
Step 2
Whisk eggs, milk, and sugar in a shallow bowl until smooth and well combined.
Step 3
Heat butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until foaming, about 90 seconds.
Step 4
Dip each sandwich into egg mixture, coating both sides thoroughly but not soaking. Place in the hot skillet.
Step 5
Cook 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and edges look crispy. The center should feel soft when pressed.
Step 6
Slide onto a plate and serve immediately with extra fresh strawberries on the side.
