Hey y'all, it's Crystal from MrsHappyHomemaker.com
and today I'm gonna show you how I make my most favorite peach dessert in the whole wide world
Peaches and Cream Cake / Cobbler because it's kinda a cobbler, kinda a cake, but it's so SO good!
What makes it so good? It's got warm dollops of cream all throughout it. It make my heart go pitter-patter, you guys.
Let me show you how to put it together!
I've got one and a half cups of self rising flour in my bowl here
I'm gonna add two boxes of cook and serve vanilla pudding. Do not get the instant, cook and serve is what you need.
So I've already got them opened to make it a little bit faster. Two 3oz boxes of the cook and serve vanilla pudding
And you just want to combine that together.
And I'm gonna set it aside and get me another bowl
To this bowl, I'm gonna add 2 eggs
1 stick of melted butter
and a cup of milk
I'm just gonna give it a whisk
Now I'm gonna take the dry mixture and add the liquid mixture to it
I'm going to take my electric mixer and beat this for 2 minutes
I would usually spray my pan with a little bit of nonstick cooking spray or bakers spray
But I'm in my new studio today (squeal) if you noticed the background change
and I'm still getting it ready and I don't have pam but I have butter so I'm gonna grease it with the stick of butter here
then I'm gonna pour my batter inside
I'm just gonna scoop my batter into my pan and spread it around
Now in this bowl, I have two 29 ounce cans of peaches that I have drained
I try to make sure that my canned peaches are in light syrup or water and then I drain that liquid off of it
I also like to use fresh peaches but I couldn't find any at the grocery store this time so canned peaches it is
If you are using fresh peaches, you will need 6 large peaches. You'll want to blanch them first, pit them and slice them into slices
I'm gonna take my peaches and just nestle them into the batter - just like so
No rhyme, reason, or pattern to it - just press them in there
There's no reason to hold the bowl, I have a table right there (laughing)
You don't want to lay them on the batter, you want to take the time to press the peaches into the batter
It might start to look like a big mess once you get to the end and all the peaches are in there but that's fine, that's what it's supposed to look like
I'm gonna set my cake aside
Now I'm gonna make the cream
I have two 8 ounce containers of cream cheese that have been left out at room temperate so they are nice and softened
To this I'm gonna add one cup of sugar
and I'm gonna add 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
I'm actually using my homemade bourbon vanilla which is fantastic in this
I'm actually out right now, I do sell it in my online store but I only sell it one time a year and I won't have any more until I think October so look out for it
So 1 tablespoon of vanilla, two 8 ounce containers of cream cheese, and 1 cup of sugar and I'm gonna beat that up until it's nice and creamy
I'm gonna bring my cake back out and I'm gonna take this cream that I just whipped up and dollop it all around
And again, no rhyme, reason, or rhythm to it - just dollop it on there
This cake is full of peaches, full of cream - it is fantastic!
I have also been known to switch out the peaches and use blueberries or blackberries
And they are both fantastic
I bet strawberries would be really good in this too but that's one that I have not yet done
A little bit there... and a little bit there... and a little bit there.... and a little bit there
Gotta get that last little bit - don't worry, my hands are clean and I'm the one eating this too!
I'm gonna go put my bowl over here, wash my hands, and I'll be right back
Now I'm just sprinkling this with some cinnamon sugar which is just equal parts of cinnamon and sugar.
And... that's it!
I'm gonna go put this in my oven - 350 degrees for about 35 to 40 minutes
Yum! I just scooped me out a serving. Look at that cream!
Y'all - there is a reason that this is my favorite peach dessert in the whole wide world and it probably has something to do with all that cream!
It is SO good! I hope that you make it. I hope that you love it!
Try it with other fruits other than peaches too like blueberries or blackeberries
SOOO good! I know I've said that 100 times but it's because it's true
