Ingredients
For the Crust
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- ⅓ cup pecan halves or candied pecans, finely chopped
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling
- 16 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 8 ounces frozen whipped topping, thawed
For the Peach Topping
- 1 pound fresh or frozen sliced peaches
- ½ cup packed light brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons water
- ¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
For Serving
- Whipped topping
- Candied pecans for garnish
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, chopped pecans, cinnamon, and melted butter. Mix until fully coated.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottoms of serving jars, ramekins, or a springform pan to create the crust layer.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.
- Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
- Spoon or spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the prepared crust.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine peaches, brown sugar, water, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Cook for 8–10 minutes until the peaches soften and the mixture thickens slightly.
- Allow the peach topping to cool completely before spooning it over the cheesecake layer.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
- Before serving, top with whipped topping and candied pecans if desired.
Notes
- Use ripe fresh peaches for the best flavor during peach season.
- Frozen peaches work perfectly and are convenient year-round.
- Make sure cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps in the filling.
- Chill thoroughly so the cheesecake sets properly.
- For extra texture, add crushed vanilla wafers between layers.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
