Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, caster sugar, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth, gently fold in blueberries, and set aside.
  2. Slice the day-old brioche loaf into 1.5-inch thick slices, creating pockets for the filling.
  3. Spoon the cheesecake mixture into the pocket of each brioche slice and seal the edges.
  4. Whisk together egg, milk, cream, and cinnamon in a shallow dish until smooth.
