Peaches and Cream Cake

Submitted by Angie in St. Charles

"I don't remember where I got this recipe but it has been a family favorite ever since I made it 8 years ago! My father-in-law requests it all of the time. It is easy to make and tastes wonderful. Everytime I take it somewhere, someone asks for the recipe. I use a butter flavored yellow cake mix."

This is a very good cake. I have made it several times. The one thing I have noticed is the crust can be a little salty if I use salted butter. I used unsalted butter in the one I made today and it was perfect. Thanks

I liked this very much, and my youngest son finished it off before my oldest son even got home from work! I did think the crust part was just a little too sweet - I don't know if it's the brand of cake mix I used, or if it's just because it was a concentrated flavor. I think I'll try it again with a different brand and see if that cuts back on the sweetness. Thanks so much for sharing!!

This was so incredible. I kept it in longer cause it didn't "look" done but it was. The cream is just really "wet' looking. But as it cooled it started thickening up. It was too good to be true. Wow. Thank you so much. I will make again!

My brother made this at a family gathering and it went over like a meg bucks lottery winner. People were actually demanding the recipe from him and licking their desert plates at the same time. This receipe was ultra easy and ultra delicious. Two hard combinations to find. My grand daughter wants this instead of a traditional birthday cake...now that's an endorsement...thanks

Can I give more than 5 stars for this one? WOW! This cake was simply divine! I have actually beeing just itching to make it, but my oven was on the fritz. Well, it was fixed yesterday and this cake was cooking less than an hour later! The instructions were very easy to follow, everything was clear. My family adored this dessert. We ate it while it was still a bit warm. Mmmmmmm... Oh my! When my 10 year old son finished his, looking a bit glossy and dazed, he said, "Mom, I know what cake I want for my birthday this year!" Terrrrrific!
