Purple Red Velvet Cake Toast with Homemade Strawberry Jam

I am going to share with you my version of Red Velvet but instead of that mine is purple. I have checked some recipes and managed to combine and impro and made one of my own. Hope you like it as much as @rorxco and i did!
On the first photo you see all of the ingredients :

• For the homemade strawberry jam you will need :
  200 gr strawberries
  150 gr powdered sugar
  3 sticks cinnamon
  2 tbs lemon juice/apple vinegar
  
  -For the cream you will need :
  1 pack cream cheese
  200 gr powdered sugar

For the cake toast you will need :
600 ml buttered milk
sweet bread
3 eggs
50 gr cacao powder
5 gr vanilla sugar
red food coloring
blue food coloring
chocolate by your choice( i used Schogetten - Stracciatella )
and some olive oil for the frying

First you need to prepare you ingredients for the homemade jam. You just pour the sugar with the cinnamon sticks and the lemon juice right in the bowl with the strawberries.

You mix them gently so you will save the fruits from squashing and leave that aside.

After that you have to prepare the mixture you are going to use to dip the sweet bread in. You mix very good the buttered milk, the eggs, the vanilla sugar, the cacao powder and the food coloring.
After that you take the sweet bread and cut triangles as the one from the photo.

Then in the middle of the side you make little cuts and you can stash those chocolate pieces inside.

Afterwards you put you frying pan on the oven on middle heat and pour the olive oil in. When you check that the oil is heated enough and ready ( you can do this by pouring one drop of the mixture in the frying pan and if starts to fry immediately it's ready) you start dipping in every piece of stuffed sweet bread from every side so it can soak enough.

You have to fry it till it stops being squishy from the inside and hardens. You take those out of the frying pan and soak the excess oil from them.

While you are waiting for them to clean and cool a little bit you can easily prepare the strawberry by putting the mixture into one frying pan and stir until it hardens like jelly. Then you turn it off and leave it to cool.
After that you can also easily prepare your cream, which gives freshness and lightness to your dessert. You put the ingredients into one bowl and stir them with the mixer while the texture gets creamy and buttery.

For the presentation you will only be needing beautiful yet simple plate, because our gourmet dessert will be pretty enough on its own. I made two plates ( one for me and one for @rorxco ) and with the first i have used 4 toasts and for the second i have used 3 toasts. You arrange them the way you like them and then you put the creamy sauce with dessert poche or with little plastic bag. After that you put that already cooled strawberry jam and you have your Gourmet Purple Velvet Cake Toast!
I hope you guys have enjoyed reading and try that! I will be really happy to hear some feedback and why not some photos of your creations!
