Life is Peachy (in the kitchen)

     I follow a fun blog, an oklahoma girl in a colorado world.  The blogger is a sweet girl I went to college with.  She is an excellent cook who posts fun, easy, delish recipes! 

     My hubster didn't feel very good today so I tried her Peach Cake Bars to cheer him up.  GOOD CHOICE!  :)

    This recipe was taken straight from her blog website, I followed the directions exactly.  The end result was warm, rich, cheesecakey-peachy goodness!

Peach Cake Bars
Makes:  12 Large Bars

Ingredients:
1 box yellow cake mix
2 eggs
1/3 c butter-- room temperature
8 oz (1 pkg) of cream cheese-- room temperature
1/3 c. white (granulated) sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
4 large peaches (it said to slice them but I cut mine into 'smaller than bite size' pieces)

Directions:
Oven: 350 degrees
Spray 9x13 pan with nonstick spray.

• Combine:  ONE egg, cake mix, and butter in a bowl with a fork until crumbly.  Save 1 c. for topping; press the remaining dough into bottom of greased cake pan.  Bake for 10 minutes.
• While this is baking, combine the cream cheese, vanilla, sugar, and remaining egg with an electric mixer until smooth. 
• When dough has baked for 10 minutes, sprinkle peaches on top of partially baked dough, top with cream cheese mixture, and finally, crumble the remaining 1 c topping on top of everything, baking the whole thing for 30 more minutes.  Try to resist drooling!

This is the finished product!  Ooh la la!

 

Slice it up and enjoy!

 

Happy Friday my Friends!  Tomorrow is OU Football!  Wahoo!
