Peaches-n-Cream Dessert

 Recipe From: Laura



The dessert of your dreams! 😋🍑  This is the scrumptious Peaches n Cream dessert served at 4th of July  BBQ. Beej said,  "It reminds me of a dessert that grandma would have made!"   I thought the same thing! 

¾ cup all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 (3 ounce) package non-instant vanilla pudding mix

3 tablespoons butter, softened

1 egg for the crust,  1 egg for brushing

½ cup milk

2 (29 ounce) can sliced peaches, drained and syrup reserved

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

½ cup white sugar


MIX TOGETHER

1 tablespoon white sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon


Directions:

Step 1  

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F .   You can make this as a pie or a dessert.  Grease sides and bottom of a 10 inch deep-dish pie pan OR an 8 x 8 pan.

 Step 2    CRUST, BAKE & PEACHES   

In a medium mixing bowl, mix together flour, salt, baking powder and pudding mix. Mix in butter, egg and milk. Beat for 2 minutes. Pour mixture into pie pan.  Bake at 350 for 10 min.  Now take the second egg and separate the yolk from the white-- discard yolk.  Brush egg white on top of batter (this acts as a protein barrier so peaches dont get the batter soggy) Bake for 2 min.  Arrange the 1  1/2 cans of the peach slices on top of the semi cooled pudding batter.  Save the last 1/2 can of peaches and dice up.  Reserve the diced peaches for cream cheese mixture.

 Step 3    CREAM CHEESE MIXTURE & CINNAMON/SUGAR MIXTURE  

In a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add 1/2 cup sugar and 3 tablespoons of the reserved peach syrup. Beat for 2 minutes. Add in the diced peaches. Spoon mixture over peaches to within 1 inch of pan edge. Mix together 1 tablespoon sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and sprinkle over top.

 Step 4     BAKE

Bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes, until golden brown.  Let cool for 15-20 min. so it has time to 'set up'.   Serve warm or chill before serving.  Serve with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream.
