This Las Vegas breakfast is sliced, stacked and sugary

Breakfast keeps growing more indulgent, and that spirit of luxe includes the Nutella French Toast at Cafe Americano at Caesars Palace.

To make it, executive chef Harold Norris cuts two thick slices from a loaf of brioche, dips them into a condensed-milk batter and coats them with cinnamon-sugar and crushed Cocoa Pebbles. He browns the slices in butter, spreads them with a thick layer of Nutella chocolate-hazelnut spread and a layer of fresh bananas, stacks them and tops with caramelized bananas and a sprinkling of sugar.

They’re $23, sugar rush included.
