Ingredients

• 2 lbs peaches, sliced
• 1 (3.4 oz) box cheesecake pudding mix
• 12 oz whipped topping
• 4 oz cream cheese, room temperature
• 18 oz peach yogurt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

1. Prepare the Cream Base:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the whipped topping, cream cheese, cheesecake pudding mix, vanilla extract, and peach yogurt. Use a whisk to blend the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and thoroughly combined. This creamy base will provide the rich, cheesecake-like flavor for the salad.
• Cover the bowl and refrigerate for about one hour, or until you’re ready to assemble the salad. Chilling the mixture allows the flavors to meld and the texture to firm up slightly.

2. Prepare the Peaches:

• Wash and dry the peaches thoroughly. Cut them in half, remove the pits, and slice the peaches into thin wedges. Fresh, ripe peaches are key to making this salad burst with flavor.

3. Assemble the Salad:

• Remove the cream mixture from the refrigerator. Gently fold in the sliced peaches, stirring carefully to combine. Ensure that the peaches are evenly coated with the creamy mixture, so every bite is full of flavor.

4. Serve:

• Serve the Peach Cheesecake Salad immediately for the freshest flavor and texture. The creamy base combined with the juicy peaches creates a delightful contrast that’s both refreshing and indulgent.

Tips for Success

• Use Fresh Peaches: For the best flavor, use ripe, fresh peaches. They should be slightly soft to the touch but not mushy.
• Chill the Cream Base: Allowing the cream base to chill ensures that the flavors meld together and the consistency is just right for folding in the peaches.
• Serve Immediately: This salad is best enjoyed fresh, so try to serve it as soon as it’s assembled for the best taste and texture.
