    It is soo simple to make, but taste like you spent hours on it! Fabulous!! Will make for friends and family anytime. I also didn't strain the raspberries and it was still great!

    I made this for the first time and loved it. My boyfriend could not stop eating this. I used fat free frozen vanilla yogurt instead of ice cream, but we didn't miss the fat. I saved the syrup from the peaches and plan to reuse it for next time.

    I just saw her show last summer where she made this. The peaches were in season and I made it. Wonderful! The peaches are in season again and I am making this again. My whole family loves it. The finished dish is so beautiful too.

    Straight forward and delicious.

    My "judges" commented most on the "yumminess" of the raspberry sauce and I used raspberries from the grocery store, not those freshly picked.

    As for the vanilla pods, they add a lovely fragrant touch! My friend advised me to save the pods and add them to a jar filled with sugar to make "vanilla sugar."

    Only downside, expensive ingredients, but you get what you pay for!

    YUM

    This recipe turned out perfect. I used Haagen Dazs vanilla frozen yogurt and it is delicious. Peaches are not in season here, yet, so my peaches were a little firm and not very flavorful...but once they cooked in the sugar bath, they were fantastic.

    Made this during peach season for weeklong house guests and we slurped up every bit of it. Not difficult to prepare, beautiful in the bowl and simplistic yet decadent. You'll love every bite. We ate ours with Wisconsin vanilla custard ice cream. Even better!
    Great show stopper recipe for a big get together...you could make everything ahead of time!

    Easy to make and lots of wow factor. Straining sauce takes a bit of time but well worth the result.

    This recipe is a must have for any home cook! Make sure you use cling peaches, and this will turn out amazingly! I htink it really is fool proof! Elegant, beautiful presentation, and insanely good! It tastes so fresh, and the combination of warm peaches with cool ice cream and the tart of berry is amazing! Make it! You will not regret it!
