This Peach Cobbler Tiramisu recipe is a delightful fusion of fruity peach cobbler and classic tiramisu, combining layers of spiced peaches, creamy filling, and soaked ladyfingers for a refreshing and elegant dessert. It features fresh peaches cooked into a thickened filling, a creamy sweetened cheese layer accented with peach preserves, and light whipped cream. After assembling, the dessert is chilled overnight to meld all the flavors perfectly.

Ingredients

Peach Cobbler Filling

  • 4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and chopped (or frozen, thawed)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water

Topping

  • 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Filling

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup sifted powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup peach preserves, slightly warmed
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Ladyfingers Layer

  • 1/3 cup peach nectar or peach juice
  • 1 teaspoon bourbon or vanilla extract
  • 1 package ladyfingers

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Peaches: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the chopped peaches, granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the peaches soften and release their juices.
  2. Thicken the Filling: Whisk together cornstarch and water in a small bowl. Pour this mixture into the peach mixture, stirring continuously. Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture thickens to a peach cobbler-like consistency. Remove from heat and let cool completely to room temperature.
  3. Whip the Cream: In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  4. Make the Cheese Filling: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and warmed peach preserves with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and well combined. Stir in half a cup of the whipped cream to lighten the mixture, then gently fold in ground cinnamon and nutmeg. Set aside.
  5. Prepare the Ladyfingers: Mix peach nectar with bourbon or vanilla extract in a small bowl. Place the ladyfingers in another bowl and drizzle evenly with the peach nectar mixture to soak them lightly.
  6. Assemble the Dessert: In a 9×9 inch glass baking dish, arrange a layer of soaked ladyfingers as the base. Spread half of the cream cheese filling over the ladyfingers, followed by half of the cooled peach mixture. Top with half of the remaining whipped cream. Repeat the layering process with the remaining ladyfingers, filling, and whipped cream.
  7. Chill and Serve: Cover the dish and refrigerate overnight or for at least 6 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set. Before serving, optionally sprinkle ground cinnamon on top for garnish.

Notes

  • Use fresh peaches when in season for best flavor, or use thawed frozen peaches if fresh are unavailable.
  • Ensure the peach filling cools completely before assembling to prevent melting the cream layers.
  • Adjust the amount of bourbon or vanilla extract in the nectar soak based on preference or omit for a non-alcoholic version.
  • Refrigerate the assembled tiramisu for at least 6 hours or overnight to allow full flavor development.
  • This recipe serves 9 comfortably and can be doubled for larger gatherings.
