Blizzard Bread

Submitted by ChaCha3

"We have a lot of snow days in N.E. Pennsylvania. So, we sprinkle a little snow on our French Toast too. Well, not real snow, but confectionery sugar is a great substitute. When snow is in the forecast, you have a hard time finding bread, eggs, and milk on grocery shelves. Get them early! Why? Because along with snowy days...comes comfort food - French Toast for breakfast. It's also a favorite for sleepovers. The kids always request Blizzard Bread for breakfast, even if it's 100 degrees outside."
