Blueberries and Cream Cheese Overnight French Toast

8 oz cream cheese, (I use half this amt and use light)
½ c sugar( I use about 1/4/ cup)
1 tsp vanilla (I use 2, Mexican vanilla the best)
¼ cup butter melted ( I don't use any)
1 orange rind grated 4 eggs
1 ½ cups milk, (I use 1%)
Slice bakery bread a good inch thick
1 cup blueberries

Combine all liquids together and mix well until smooth, I find cheese mixes better
with just eggs and gets all lumps out. Then add milk.

Spray pan( 9X13 glass) with pam and line with bread and cover the bread ith liquid mixture.

If not enough add a bit more milk, cover and set in fridge overnight.

In the morning. sprinkle one cup blueberries on top and a handful of pecans.

Bake 350 for almost an hr until knife comes out clean.

I use some of this sauce on top with a drizzle of real maple syrup on top of the sauce.

Blueberry Sauce:
½ cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup water ( I use OJ or apple)
1 Orange, grated
1 cup of Blueberries

Boil together until clear and thickened. I then spray a design with whipping cream and plop a purple pansy on the top but have to serve it fast as the whipping cream melts. An orange nasturium looks great too.

I always have a bottle of blackberry or mango puree in refrigerator with a nozzle to drizzle this around to add to it.
Tthis is one dish everyone runs and gets their camera.
