Easy Peaches Cream Salad Recipe How To Make Peaches Cream

Ingredients

3 large peaches (about 1 lb. total), finely chopped 

1 tbsp. granulated sugar

1 c. whipped cream

1 c. whole plain Greek yogurt

3 tbsp. honey

1 tsp. amaretto or 1/2 tsp. almond extract

1/2 tsp. finely grated orange zest

1/8 tsp. grated fresh nutmeg

1/4 c. torn fresh mint leaves

1/4 c. crushed shortbread cookies

Preparation

Step 1In a large bowl, toss peaches and granulated sugar. Let sit 10 minutes.Step 2Meanwhile, in another large bowl, combine whipped cream, yogurt, honey, amaretto, orange zest, and nutmeg until smooth.Step 3Spoon 2 tablespoons yogurt mixture in the bottom of each serving glass. Top with a layer of peaches and a light sprinkle of torn mint. Repeat layering until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of yogurt mixture. Sprinkle with crushed cookies and any remaining mint.

For a light bit of flavoring, there’s a tiny pour of amaretto liqueur, fresh nutmeg, and orange zest. If you’d prefer, almond extract can be a good substitute for the amaretto: Use ½ teaspoon of the extract, because it’s ultra-concentrated! Finally, top with some crushed cookies—any kind. I prefer the shortbread variety for an easy crumble; butter cookies and brown butter butter cookies are even better. You can also use store-bought varieties, like graham crackers, Nilla wafers, and even Oreos, as long as it adds a little crunchy intrigue on top.
