Instructions
Make the cheesecake filling:
In a bowl, mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
Assemble the sandwiches:
Spread a thick layer of cheesecake filling on one slice of bread. Add sliced strawberries, then top with another slice of bread. Press gently and trim crusts if desired.
Coat the sandwiches:
Set up three bowls: flour in one, beaten eggs mixed with milk in the second, and breadcrumbs in the third.
Dip each sandwich in flour, then egg mixture, then breadcrumbs, pressing to coat well.
