Valentine’s Tiramisu French Toast

0 Make the Espresso SoakIn a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, espresso, and sugar until fully combined.Dip each slice of brioche into the mixture, letting it soak for a few seconds per side so it absorbs flavor without getting soggy.
1 Cook the French ToastHeat butter in a pan over medium heat.Cook each slice for about 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and lightly crisp on the outside but soft in the center. Set aside while you make the cream.
2 Make the Tiramisu CreamIn a mixing bowl, combine mascarpone, heavy cream, Lifeway kefir, powdered sugar, and vanilla.Whisk (or use a hand mixer) until smooth and fluffy. You’re looking for a thick, spreadable consistency. If it’s too thin, add a bit more powdered sugar and whip again.The kefir is the magic here — it adds that slight tang and depth that mimics traditional tiramisu flavor while keeping everything light.
3 Make the Coffee DrizzleIn a small bowl, whisk together the cooled espresso, heavy cream, and sugar until smooth and slightly thickened. Adjust sweetness or cream to reach your desired drizzle consistency.
4 AssembleStack or layer the French toast.Spread or dollop generously with the tiramisu cream. Drizzle with the coffee sauce and dusting of cocoa powder. Finish with festive Valentine’s sprinkles.Serve immediately while warm and soft.
