Cook the French Toast
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Dip each sandwich in the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then place in the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown.

Caramelize the Sugar
Sprinkle sugar evenly over the top of each slice and use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it forms a hard crust. If you don’t have a torch, you can place the French toast under a broiler for a couple of minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
