Boozy splash: toss fresh berries with a splash of Grand Mariner for an orange flavor.

Apple Cinnamon: use brown sugar in the cheesecake mixture and top sliders with a tablespoon or two of Mom's Apple Pie Filling, a dollop of whipped cream and dash of cinnamon.

French toast casserole: arrange the stuffed french toast sliders in a large baking dish. Cover egg mixture, and bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes.

💭 Tips

Use bread instead: Use brioche bread, cut a few thick slices of bread in quarters and make mini stuffed french toast sliders. 

Room temperature ingredients: be sure to use softened cream cheese to make blending the ingredients together easier;.

Soak the Sliders: Allow the sliders to soak in the egg batter for a few moments to ensure they're thoroughly coated and infused with flavor.

Cooking Temperature: Use a medium-low heat to cook the sliders, allowing the cheesecake filling to warm through without burning the exterior.

Serve Warm: These sliders are best enjoyed fresh off the skillet or griddle when the exterior is still slightly crispy and the cheesecake filling is warm and creamy.
