Description
Creamy peach cheesecake salad merges dessert dreams with refreshing summer charm. Cold and luscious layers of cream cheese, fresh peaches, and sweet marshmallows create a delightful Southern-style treat you’ll crave at every picnic and potluck.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
- 2 pounds (907 grams) peaches, sliced
- 18 ounces (510 grams) peach yogurt
- 12 ounces (340 grams) whipped topping
Dairy Components:
- 4 ounces (113 grams) cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 (3.4 ounces or 96 grams) box cheesecake pudding mix
Flavor Enhancer:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Craft a luscious foundation by blending whipped topping, softened cream cheese, cheesecake pudding mix, pure vanilla extract, and peach yogurt in a spacious mixing vessel. Whisk with precision until the mixture transforms into a velvety, homogeneous composition.
- Allow the creamy concoction to chill and meld flavors by covering and refrigerating for approximately one hour, enabling the ingredients to harmonize and develop a rich, smooth consistency.
- While the mixture rests, prepare fresh peaches by thoroughly cleansing and patting them dry. Skillfully halve the fruits, extract the central pits, and slice them into delicate, uniform wedges.
- Retrieve the chilled cream base from the refrigerator and gently incorporate the peach slices. Fold with a light touch to ensure each peach wedge becomes elegantly enrobed in the creamy mixture without disrupting their delicate structure.
- For optimal taste and textural experience, serve the Peach Cheesecake Salad immediately after assembly, presenting a refreshing and indulgent dessert that balances creamy richness with bright, sweet peach notes.
Notes
- Chill the cream mixture for at least an hour to develop rich, creamy flavors and allow ingredients to meld together perfectly.
- Choose ripe, juicy peaches for the most vibrant and sweet taste that elevates the entire dessert salad.
- Gently fold peaches into the cream base to maintain their delicate texture and prevent bruising or breaking.
- Serve immediately after mixing to enjoy the freshest combination of creamy cheesecake-inspired base and bright peach chunks.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, understanding the texture may slightly change after initial preparation.
- Optional garnish with graham cracker crumbs or toasted sliced almonds adds delightful crunch and complements the creamy peach flavor.
