Tiramisu French Toast

Add whipping cream and mascarpone to a mixing bowl and beat on medium speed with electric mixers (or use a stand mixer). Slowly add sugar and 1 tsp vanilla extract and whip to any consistency you like. I like it like a sauce, but if you prefer a stiffer cream, whip it to that consistency. Set aside in the refrigerator.
Whisk together eggs, coffee powder or espresso, cocoa, liqueur, milk, salt, sugar, in a flat-bottomed pie plate or baking dish. Place bread slices, one or two at a time, into the egg mixture and flip to make sure both sides of bread are well-coated. Soak for 10 seconds or 20 seconds for a more soaked version.
Melt butter in a large skillet or on a griddle. Place bread slices in skillet or on griddle and cook on medium heat until golden brown on each side, about 2-3 minutes.
Serve immediately with cream and sprinkle of cocoa powder. If you don't serve it immediately keep warm in oven until ready to serve, but no longer than about 30 minutes.
