Made this today for a birthday cake with a difference. The word "dough" had me worried as it just looked like a cake batter, but I need not have been concerned. It worked beautifully. We served it with a scoop of vanilla icecream. I would make it again, as it's a pretty cake to serve.

I have been making this exact recipe for years. I find this recipe to be easy to make and with ingredients I usually have on hand. The peaches look so pretty, it belies how simple it is to make. Thank you so much for posting this, Nannette!!
