Hot Chocolate French Toast

My daughter came up with this recipe. Who would have thought that delicious hot chocolate could become a delicious breakfast?

Be creative and garnish with whipped cream and marshmallows. The chocolate taste is amazing. I used skim milk but feel free to use the milk and bread of your choice. If using regular bread only give a brief dunk or your bread will fall apart. This would be good with Texas toast also.

This would be great for Christmas morning.
