👩🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Cook the Peaches
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the chopped peaches, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peaches soften and the mixture becomes syrupy. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
Step 2: Prepare the Cream Cheese Base
In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
Step 3: Combine Peach Mixture with Cream Cheese
Once the peaches have cooled, fold them into the cream cheese mixture. Stir gently, leaving some peach chunks for added texture.
Step 4: Chill and Serve
Transfer the spread to a serving bowl or airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld.
Sweet, tangy, and creamy, this spread is a versatile addition to your summer breakfasts or snacks.
