Instructions
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Dip each slice of brioche bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side to fully absorb the flavors.

- Place the soaked bread slices onto the skillet, cooking until golden brown on each side, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Once cooked, remove the French toast from the skillet and let it cool slightly on a wire rack.
- Spread a generous amount of custard filling on one slice of French toast, then top with another slice to create a sandwich. Repeat this step with the remaining slices.

- Dust with powdered sugar before serving for an elegant finish.
- Serve immediately and enjoy this delightful twist on a classic dessert!
