All I can say is "oh my goodness, this is fabulous!!" Ok, I have just a little more to say :- While I think it would be fabulous with croissants I used Texas Toast, I wanted it to be a little more filling. Also, I used less cream and lots more eggs. I used about 1 egg per piece of bread. For a whole loaf of Texas Toast I doubled the Sauce and I made fresh whipped cream to top it.
FABULOUS!!
