Golden Peach Butter

Dancer^'s Note:

These was easy to prepare and I made 4 batches and frozen some last fall. We just finished the last of it, it freezes very well, just defrost in the refrigerator. Freeze in 1 c. containers. Stir very well before using. Its nice on all breads and if you thin 2 tbsps. with a little water its a nice basting sauce for ham or chicken.
