Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made graham cracker crust
- 2 cups fresh peaches, sliced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
Instructions
- Prepare the fresh peaches by washing thoroughly, removing the pit, and slicing them into thin, uniform pieces approximately 1/4 inch thick.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese and powdered sugar. Use an electric mixer to blend until smooth and creamy, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Pour heavy cream into a separate clean mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer, whip the cream until stiff peaks form, which typically takes about 3-4 minutes on medium-high speed.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, adding vanilla extract. Use a spatula and fold carefully to maintain the cream's light, airy texture.
- Arrange a layer of sliced peaches on the bottom of the pre-made graham cracker crust, covering the entire surface evenly.
- Pour the cream cheese and whipped cream mixture over the peach layer, spreading it smoothly and evenly to the edges of the crust.
- Garnish the top of the pie with additional fresh peach slices for decoration and added flavor.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to set and develop a rich, creamy consistency.
- Before serving, let the pie sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes to soften slightly, which will make slicing easier.
- Cut into 8 equal slices and serve chilled. Optional: Garnish with a mint leaf or additional peach slice for presentation.
Tips
- Choose ripe, fragrant peaches for the most intense flavor. The riper the peach, the sweeter your pie will be.
- Ensure cream cheese is completely softened at room temperature to avoid lumps in your mixture.
- When whipping cream, use a chilled bowl and beaters for faster, more stable peaks.
- Fold the whipped cream gently to maintain its airy texture and prevent deflation.
- For a more decorative finish, consider arranging peach slices in a circular pattern on top of the pie.
- Chill the pie for at least 4 hours, but overnight is even better for maximum flavor melding.
- If you want a firmer texture, you can freeze the pie for 1-2 hours before serving.
