Croissant French Toast image

More like a scrumptious dessert than a main dish, this rich French toast is topped with a tangy raspberry sauce and a vanilla sauce that includes ice cream. I cut the croissants into shapes with a cookie cutter for my 4-year-old grandson, Patrick. He even asks for the "ice cream sauce" on pancakes! -June Dickenson Philippi, West Virginia

This recipe was a disaster! The croissants were burnt and the custard was curdled. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The croissants were a bit dry and the custard was a bit bland. I would probably not make this again.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. The croissants were cooked perfectly and the custard was very creamy. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the custard next time.
