Ingredients

For the cake:

  • 3 tablespoons salted butter (softened)
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ cup 2% milk
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 ounces non-instant vanilla pudding mix (it should say “cook and serve” on the package) (1 package)
  • 1 ½ cans sliced peaches, roughly chopped, drained, and pat dry (29 ounce cans) (reserve 3 Tbs juice)

For the cream:

  • 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons reserved peach juice (from the can as mentioned above)

For topping:

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Grease sides and bottom of 10-inch springform pan.
  • Use an electric mixer or a stand mixer with the paddle attachment to mix the batter. In a medium bowl (or bowl of a stand mixer), beat together butter, egg and milk on medium speed.
  • Add in the dry ingredients, flour, salt, baking powder, and pudding mix, and beat for an additional 2 minutes.
  • Pour batter into the greased springform pan and bake in oven for 10 minutes. (Don't worry...it will finish cooking later.)
  • While cake is baking, make cream cheese topping. In a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, ½ cup sugar, and 3 tablespoons peach syrup until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Take the cake out of oven and sprinkle the peaches on the top.
  • Spoon mixture over peaches and gently spread to the edges.
  • Stir together sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle evenly over the top.
  • Bake 30-35 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Cool completely before serving. Store in the refrigerator.
