Ingredients
  

Graham Cracker Crust

  • 18 Graham Crackers, full cracker
  • 1/3 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 Cup Butter, melted

Cream Cheese Filling

  • 8 oz. Cream Cheese
  • 1/4 Cup Powdered Sugar
  • 12 oz. Cool Whip

Peach Filling

  • 8 Large Peaches, peeled, pitted and sliced

Stabilized Whipped Cream

  • 2 tsp. Knox Gelatin
  • 3 Tbsp. Water
  • 2 Cups Heavy Cream
  • 1/3 Cup Powdered Sugar

Instructions
 

Graham Cracker Crust

  • Crush the crackers in a food processor, smashing with a rolling pin or smashing with your hands in a plastic bag. The finer the better.
  • Melt the butter add butter and sugar to the graham cracker crumbs and mix well.
  • Push down into a 13 x 9 pan with the back of a measuring cup until even.
  • Bake in a 350° oven for 5 minutes.
  • Let cool completely.

Cream Cheese Filling

  • Mix the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.
  • Add 12 ounces of Cool Whip that has been placed in the refrigerator overnight.
  • Beat until smooth.

Peach Filling

  • Peel and pit the peaches.
  • Slice into even slices to lay on top of the cream cheese filling.

Stabilized Whipped Cream

  • Place gelatin in a small bowl.
  • Add the cold water and stir slightly. Let stand for 5 minutes.
  • Add the heavy cream to a stand mixer and add the powdered sugar.
  • Whip on medium speed until soft peaks form.
  • After the 5 minutes, place the gelatin in the microwave for 10 seconds.
  • It should be liquified and clear. If not, microwave for another 10 seconds.
  • Stir the gelatin until it cools a bit.
  • While continuously beating the heavy cream on medium speed, add a teaspoon of liquid gelatin at a time.
  • Continue beating until all gelatin is added.
  • Beat for another 10- 15 seconds or longer until the whipped cream is thick and smooth.
  • *Full Disclosure - I used 3 teaspoons of gelatin, 4 1/2 tablespoons of water, 1/2 cup of powdered sugar and three cups of heavy cream to cover the top of this 13 x 9 pan. I made the full recipe and halved it again.

Constructing Peach Delight

  • Plop on the cream cheese filling on the cooled graham cracker crust.
  • Using an offset spatula or another tool, spread until even and smooth.
  • Place the sliced peaches evenly over the cream cheese filling.
  • Put the stabilized whipped cream into a piping bag with a star tip.
  • Swirl the stabilized whipped cream into circles over the top of the peaches.
  • Cool until ready to serve.
