Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Line the bottom of a 12 inch skillet with the bottoms of the croissants in a single layer, cut side up. Sprinkle the chocolate chips over the croissants and then layer the tops on the chocolate chips, cut side down.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, half and half, cinnamon, vanilla and coffee extract until thoroughly combined.
Pour the egg mixture over the croissants and allow to rest for 10-15 minutes so the croissants can absorb the egg mixture.

Allow the casserole to cool fro 5-10 minutes before serving.
While the casserole cools, whisk together the confectioners' sugar and milk. Drizzle the glaze over the casserole.
