I did this with nectarines and couldn't find Amaretti cookies so used honey graham crackers instead. An excellent, easy, delicious and elegant dessert served with a little vanilla ice cream. Looking forward to experimenting with other stone fruits and cookies! Thanks Giada, you're a star!

I love this dessert, and will definitely try it with pears in the fall. The first time I made it I used amaretti cookies from an Italian market, but in a pinch this time I'm using vanilla wafers spiked with some almond extract (add a little at a time and taste, a little goes a long way), with some whole almonds and 1-2 tbsp butter added to the mixture and all pulsed together in my mini-food processor. It's so easy and quick. I prefer the amaretti cookies but I think this will work out just fine.

it took me a while to find amaretti cookies but then relized i should look in the italian food section of the store. found em. anyway, really great recipe, everyone enjoyed it. i even whipped the cream myself, might i suggest using a hand mixer bc whisking it yourself takes forever

I made these for a quick light dessert after grilling outside. They are so easy and just the right amount of sweetness. I used graham crackers instead of amaretti cookies since I didnt have any on hand. Make sure you use very solid peaches b/c they can be a little challenging to work with if they are too ripe. They taste like little individual peach cobblers! YUM!!

I used the pepperidge farm Bordeaux cookies because i couldn't find the A cookies and it was sweet and crunchy and creamy and light. Serve it after a heavy meal. But xtra peaches for those that are to firm to twist open or too ripe and crush. Out of 10 peaches I had 4 that worked and it was peach season. but it was well worth it!

I had to substitute pears for the peaches and we used a cookie variation as well. The whole concept is easy to prepare and build and change off from to suit our tastes and availablilty of fruit choices. It's an outstanding dessert.




Fabulous and so easy!!

This was easy to make for a small dinner party and my guests were very impressed and happy with this dessert. I used brown sugar which worked nicely.

Try Pears!

I made this recipe with pears and it was so delicious. The pears come out soo sweet. The harder, ripened pear is best. A ripened, soft pear goes limp after being cooked in the oven. I found the harder pear kept its shape. Both tasted scrumptous! I used Spenda too as per some of the suggestions and found it to be just as delicious! The peaches right now are from Chile and are horrible. I highly recommend you try this recipe with pears!




fast, easy, and taste so good...

This is a good way to get adults to eat their peaches. I'm not a huge peach fan however I did like this recipe.

If you are lucky enough to find the cookies, just eat them. They are awesome. Still, the fruit cooked with them is great too.

I tried this recipe Sunday night to try it before I had friends over for dinner on Tuesday night. It was GREAT on Sunday, and even better on Tuesday...I made this recipe exactly as it reads, then in another pan, I used Splenda instead of sugar, and I drizzled amaretto over the top of the peaches before I put the butter on them. Both pans were gone!

A quick, yet surprisingly special dessert b/c of a "comfort food" quality it offers as it's served warm from the oven and the natural flavors are more pronounced...with whipped cream or a dollop of ice cream, I am anxious to try it soon w/ my guests.




top notch
