Cheesecake Filled Peaches Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325˚ F. Make the crust: Wrap the outside of a 9-inch springform pan with foil. Butter the inside of the pan and line the bottom with gingersnaps, breaking them as needed.
• Make the filling: Beat the cream cheese, sugar, orange zest and salt in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until just combined, then beat in the peach nectar. Pour the filling over the crust and bake until set but the center still jiggles slightly, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely, then refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.
• Make the topping: Toss the peaches with the orange juice and sugar until the sugar dissolves. Spoon over the cheesecake.

Steps:

• Grease and line the sides of a 9-inch (20 cm) round springform pan with parchment paper.
• Add the shortbread cookies to a food processor. Pulse until finely crushed. Add the melted butter and pulse until combined.
• Transfer the cookie crumb mixture to the springform pan. Use a spatula or measuring cup to press the cookie crumbs down to form an even base. Freeze for 10 minutes.
• Add 2-3 quartered peaches (depending on size) to a food processor. Blend until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve.
• In a small bowl, combine ½ cup (120 ml) cold water and 2 packets of gelatin. Let the gelatin bloom for 5 minutes, until the water is mostly absorbed. Microwave for 20-30 seconds, or until the gelatin is melted.
• In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, 1¼ cups (250 G) sugar, the vanilla, and lemon juice together with an electric hand mixer until combined.
• Add the heavy cream and melted gelatin and beat for another 2-3 minutes, until well combined and fluffy.
• Spread half the cheesecake mixture over the chilled cookie crust. Freeze for 10 minutes.
• Mix 1 cup (255 G) of the strained peach puree and orange food coloring, if desired, into the remaining cheesecake mixture. Carefully pour the mixture over the first layer of cheesecake. Spread evenly and freeze for another 10 minutes.
• In a small bowl, combine the remaining ½ cup (120 ML) cold water with the remaining 2 packages of gelatin. Let the gelatin bloom for 5 minutes, until the water is mostly absorbed. Microwave for 20-30 seconds, or until the gelatin is melted.
• Combine the gelatin mixture, hot water, and the remaining ⅔ cup (135 G) sugar and whisk to dissolve the sugar. Slowly pour into the prosecco and stir to combine. Let sit for 5 minutes to cool slightly. Skim off any foam that rises to the top. Set aside.
• Starting from the outside and working inward, arrange the sliced peaches over the peach cheesecake layer in a circular pattern with the curved sides facing out. Begin with the larger slices, overlapping slightly, and continue until the entire surface is filled.
• Spoon half of the prosecco gelatin over the peaches. Carefully transfer to the refrigerator and let set for 30 minutes. Pour the remaining prosecco gelatin over the peaches up to the rim of the pan. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or overnight.
• Release the springform and remove the parchment, then slice and serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Line a 15 x 10 x 1" baking pan with parchment paper; set aside. Trim a very thin slice from the round side of each peach half so the halves will stand flat on the baking pan. Dip peach halves in melted butter to coat. Arrange peach halves, cut sides up, in prepared pan. Sprinkle cut sides of peaches with cinnamon-sugar; set aside.
• In a medium mixing bowl beat cream cheese with a mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add sugar, egg yolk & vanilla. Beat until combined. Spoon cream cheese mixture into peach centers.
• Bake, uncovered, about 30 minutes or until lightly browned & softened. Serve warm or at room temperature.
• NOTE: Use a purchased cinnamon-sugar mixture or combine 3 tablespoons granulated sugar with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
