Cheesecake-stuffed Peaches

So, this is a DELICIOUS recipe I found in my Better Homes and Gardens magazine from August. Absolutely fantastic! I used fresh peaches from the Dallas Farmers Market and thought I had died and gone to heaven when I tried it. It is like baked apples, but with peaches, which naturally is a hundred times better : )

Ingredients:
6 peaches, halved and pitted
1/4 cup butter, melted
3 T cinnamon sugar
1/2 pkg (4 oz.) cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg yolk
1 1/2 t. vanilla

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper and set aside.

Trim a very thin slice from the bottom of the peach halves so they can stand flat on the baking pan. Dip the halves in the melted butter to coat. Place the peaches pit-side up on pan. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.

In a small bowl, beat cream cheese with mixer till smooth. Add sugar, egg yolk, and vanilla. Beat until combined and spoon mixture into peach centers.

Bake uncovered 30 minutes or until lightly browned and softened. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Enjoy a delicious harvest dessert!!!
