    LOVED LOVED LOVED this cake. It was a little time consuming but well worth it. I made it last night to have it with coffee the following morning and it is the early afternoon and 3/4 of it is gone. My husband took some to work and I shared a couple of pieces with co-workers, my mother took some to share with my father and we have only 1/4 left. Very tasty and I will definitely be making this again and soon. If you are having problems with the sugar/water portion, you need to be patient and keep stirring. The water will eventually dry out and the sugar will start to carmelize. DON'T ADD MORE WATER you are looking for it to evaporate. That will happen if you keep stirring the sugar and water very patiently.

    I made this yesterday. I also had the same problem with the sugar/water portion. I ended up tossing it out and using brown sugar/ butter and a bit of corn syrup for the pan coating. Because my peaches were mushy, I used thinly sliced apples. It was FABULOUS! The cake portion is easy and absolutely delicious. I can see many uses for the cake receipe alone.

    Great recipe! Delcious cake! I used almond meal (you can get it at Trader Joes or a specialty store that I added to the flour; came out perfect. I used brown sugar and 2 tbsps of water to make the caramel. A keeper recipe. Thanks!!

    Cake tasted great! I had the same problem as the other posters, I could not get my sugar to melt smoothly or to turn that nice dark color. It got very dried out so I kept adding water by the tablespoonful. After 30 minutes I said "the heck with it" and just finished making the cake. It's really tasty but it was frustrating to not have it turn out the way the recipe said. I wish there was a way for the FN test kitchen chefs to explain what we are all doing wrong!

    So delicious! I didn't have enough milk, so I used 5 oz. honey flavored Greek yogurt and 2 oz. of milk. Totally decadent!!!

    An easy and quick cake to make and with peaches in season, it's perfect to make now! The topping appears to harden but give it time to melt and become deep amber color. I baked the cake for 45 minutes and it came out perfect and moist. Will make again this weekend for guests.

    The recipe step one does not work, so I add another teaspoon of butter and substituted 1/4 of the sugar with brown sugar and crumbled it up in bottom of the pan. This worked fine, while cooking it cooks into the juices of the peach and thickens....the finished cake is so good!

    Step one of the recipe is to melt butter, add sugar and water. I tried this twice in two different skillets and it didn't turn out. The sugar mixture eventually became dry. I followed the recipe as written. Looked forward to making this cake, but ended up wasting ingredients.
