Here’s the recipe:
Peach Dessert
Bottom Layer
25 golden oreo cookies – crushed
25 vanilla wafer cookies – crushed
1/2 stick stick of butter – melted
Middle Layer
1 8oz. package of cream cheese – softened
1 cup cool whip
1 cup powdered sugar
Top Layer
1/2 cup orange juice concentrate from a can
2 cups water
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 cups of sliced peaches
Directions:
Mix the melted butter with all of the crushed cookies, and press into a 9x13in. pan. Mix the cream cheese with the powdered sugar and cool whip. Now for the top peaches layer, bring to a boil the orange juice, water, sugar, cornstarch, and both extracts. Mix the cooled sauce with the 6 cups of sliced peaches and put all of it on top of the cream cheese middle layer. Chill for 3 hours or overnight. Serve chilled.
Oh it really is so good! Perfect for peach season.
*I’ve had a few readers mention that they had an issue with this recipe being runny with the top peach layer. Here’s a solution: The cooked part needs to be cooked VERY LONG with additional cornstarch until very thick. Otherwise it will stay too runny when fresh peaches are added. One reader made a double recipe, and she added 2 boxes of peach jello AND 1 env of Knox gelatin to set up. Once its semi cool, split it up, add the fresh peaches and place into 2 pans with the cream cheese layer in and then allow to set up over night. She also tried using a combination of vanilla wafers and gingersnap cookies for crust. – This sounds like it would be good! Thank you for sharing! Wishing you all success with this delicious recipe.
