Peaches and Cream
A simple, no-bake peaches and cream treat that’s fresh, juicy, and perfectly sweet — the ultimate summer dessert you can whip up in no time!
Equipment
- Mixing bowl preferably chilled
- Hand mixer or whisk if you’re feeling brave
- Spoons
- Jars, cups, or any cute container you’ve got
- Fridge for chilling
Ingredients
- 3–4 fresh peaches, sliced real pretty or more, I won’t judge
- 1 cup heavy cream no skimping here, babe!
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar or more if your sweet tooth says so
- 1 tsp vanilla extract don’t skip it, it’s magic
- Handful of crushed cookies or granola for that perfect crunch
Instructions
- Whip That CreamGet yourself a chilled bowl (seriously, stick it in the fridge for a few minutes). Toss in the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla. Then whip it like your favorite dance song is playing. I’m talking about those soft peaks, babe — no sad, soupy cream here.
- Layer Like a BossGrab some cute jars or bowls. I’ve even used coffee mugs when I was feeling extra lazy, and they worked like a charm. Start with a layer of those sweet, juicy peaches, then pile on a big spoonful of whipped cream. Sprinkle a handful of crushed cookies for that satisfying crunch. Keep going till you’re outta goodies or you can’t resist sneaking a bite.
- Chill and Let the Magic HappenStick those pretty little cups in the fridge for at least 20 minutes (or longer if you’ve got the patience — I usually don’t, but I try!). Something about that chill time just makes everything come together so perfectly.
Notes
- Frozen or canned peaches? Totally fine! Just thaw and drain well so it’s not a watery mess.
- Whipped cream troubles? Make sure everything is cold: bowl, cream, even the beaters if you can.
- Make ahead? Absolutely! Assemble ahead of time and chill for 2–3 hours max for best texture.
- No fancy cups? Use whatever you’ve got — even paper cups can work for that summer picnic vibe.
- Extra peach love? Add a drizzle of honey or toasted coconut for next-level deliciousness.
