Peaches & cream cheese bars image

My daughter & I came up w/ this because she loves peaches and I thought it would taste great as a cheesecake. So we compromised...haha. She made a glaze for the bars, whereas I didn't. I thought they taste great w/ just a dollop of whipped cream.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 c soft, unsalted butter
2 c sugar
4 large eggs, room temp
3 c sifted flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 21 oz can peach pie filling
8 oz softened cream cheese
1/2 c sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp orange rind or peel
1 large egg
1 c powdered sugar, ( if making glaze.)
2-3 Tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 350. Set rack to middle of oven. Lightly spray a 9" x 13" baking pan w/ cooking spray, set aside. In a large bowl, w/ a good mixer, beat1 cup of the butter and 2 cups of the sugar until fluffy. Beat in 4 eggs and 1 tsp vanilla.
  • 2. In food processor, measure out the flour and salt and put into processor bowl. Little by little, add the butter/sugar mix until combined, by pulsing in the processor. Spread 1/2 the batter in pan. In medium bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, 1 tsp vanilla and 1 egg until creamy. Spread over batter in pan.
  • 3. Spread the peaches over the cream cheese mix. Drop remaining batter, by the tablespoon, over cheese cake layer. I baked this for 45 mins but my daughter made it in her oven and it took only 30 , so bake until the top is light golden brown. If making the drizzle, in a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk and vanilla until combined. drizzle over cooled bars.
