Overnight French Toast Bake

1 1/2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
1/4 cup powdered sugar

1 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract, divided

Lightly grease a 9x9 inch baking dish. Arrange 2/3 the bread cubes in the dish. Beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla with a mixer until smooth. Spread evenly over bread cubes. Sprinkle 1 cup blueberries over the cream cheese, and top with remaining bread cubes.
