This rich, decadent cake, topped with the season's freshest peaches, is surprising simple to whip up and sure to wow!
If there is one thing everyone can agree on, it's cheesecake.
It is an irresistible dessert that is suitable for almost any occasion.
This may be one of my favorite cheesecakes made thus far. It's texture is velvety and smooth, and who can deny fruit toppings?
Note however, if you do not have any peaches on hand, the topping can be made with berries or even pineapple.

I love the idea of cheesecake topped with peaches. And those peaches would be great on ice cream, too! Pinning this!

Dear Catherine and Tammy, What a lovely combination from two amazing people. I never had the peaches on top of cheesecake. All the cheesecake slices I have had in the past, never one with this type of topping. I guess it is about time for me to have this delicious creamy cheesecake with these sweet peaches! Wonderful recipe....Thanks for sharing... Have a blessed week...Dottie 🙂
