Materials

Crust:

  • 2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

Cream cheese layer:

  • 16 oz. cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 Tbsp. lemon juice

Peaches and gelatin:

  • 2 cups sliced peaches, 2 large, 3 - 4 small/medium
  • 2 cups boiling water
  • 6 oz. box gelatin, peach flavored

Instructions

Crust:

  • Mix crumbs and butter together and press into bottom of 13 x 9" baking dish. Set in the refrigerator.

Cream cheese layer:

  • Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese, sugar, and lemon juice until smooth and fluffy. There should be no lumps.
  • Pour and spread evenly over crust. Place back in the refrigerator.

Peaches and gelatin:

  • Peel, pit, and slice the peaches. Lay them directly onto the cream cheese layer and press down slightly, just so they grab.
  • If using canned peaches, be sure to blot off the syrup first.
  • Pour the boiling water into a small bowl and whisk in the dry gelatin. Stir until completely dissolved. ***Allow to cool to room temperature before next step.***
  • Gently pour over the peaches. Place back into the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  • Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and enjoy!

Notes

The cream cheese may still be soft when you pour the gelatin on top. To avoid making holes, I pour the gelatin onto a large flat spoon, then let it gently cascade onto the peaches/gelatin.
