Can I use fresh peaches instead of peach pie filling?

Yes, fresh peaches can be used. For the best results, slice ripe peaches and prepare them with a little sugar and a thickening ingredient so they create a similar texture to peach pie filling.

How long does No Bake Peach Yum Yum need to chill?

The dessert should chill for several hours before serving. Overnight chilling is ideal because it allows the layers to fully set and the flavors to blend together.

Can I freeze this No Bake Peach dessert?

Freezing is possible, but the texture of the cream layer may change slightly after thawing. For the best creamy consistency, refrigeration is usually recommended.

Instructions

Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, cinnamon, and ground cloves in a bowl until the mixture is evenly moistened.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a baking dish to create an even crust. Reserve a small amount of crumbs for topping.
Beat softened cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy with no lumps.
Whip heavy cream with vanilla extract until stiff peaks form and the mixture becomes fluffy.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the sweetened cream cheese mixture to create a light and creamy filling.
Spread part of the cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust, then add an even layer of peach pie filling.
Spread the remaining cream cheese mixture over the peach layer and sprinkle the reserved graham cracker crumbs on top.
Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight until the layers are fully set before slicing and serving.

Notes

Use softened cream cheese to achieve a smooth, lump-free filling.
Allow enough chilling time so the dessert slices cleanly and the flavors develop.
Fresh peaches can be substituted for peach pie filling when prepared with a thickened sauce.
Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free cookies or crackers for the crust.
