Ingredients

Scale

Cobbler Topping

  • 1 cup Light Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 8 sheets Graham Cracker Sheets, crumbled
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar

Cheesecake Fruit Salad

  • 8 ounces Cream Cheese, softened
  • 1 box Instant Cheesecake Pudding Mix
  • 1 cup French Vanilla Creamer
  • 4 cups fresh Peaches, cut into bite-sized pieces

Instructions

  1. Preparation: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure easy cleanup and prevent sticking.
  2. Make Cobbler Topping: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the light brown sugar, unsalted butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, kosher salt, and nutmeg. Microwave for 1-2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until the mixture is bubbly and smooth.
  3. Combine with Graham Crackers: Add the crumbled graham cracker sheets to the butter and sugar mixture, stirring until the crackers are evenly coated.
  4. Bake the Topping: Spread the coated graham cracker mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle granulated sugar over the top to add crispness, then bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and fragrant.
  5. Prepare Cheesecake Base: While the topping bakes, whip the softened cream cheese in a bowl until smooth and creamy. Gradually mix in the instant cheesecake pudding mix to thicken and flavor the base further.
  6. Add Creamer: Slowly pour in the French vanilla creamer while blending, continuing until the mixture reaches a smooth, creamy consistency.
  7. Mix in Peaches: Gently fold in the bite-sized peach pieces, distributing them evenly throughout the cheesecake mixture. Chill this mixture while waiting for the cobbler topping to cool.
  8. Assemble and Serve: Once the cobbler topping has cooled completely, combine it gently with the chilled peach cheesecake mixture just before serving. Stir carefully to maintain the topping’s texture, and enjoy your refreshing summer dessert.

Notes

  • You can substitute dark brown sugar for a richer topping flavor.
  • Coconut oil can replace butter for a dairy-free option.
  • Use pure vanilla extract for the best aroma and flavor.
  • Nutmeg can be omitted or substituted with pumpkin spice if desired.
  • For a lighter cheesecake base, Greek yogurt can replace cream cheese.
  • Vanilla instant pudding mix may be used instead of cheesecake pudding mix.
  • Fresh stone fruits like nectarines or apricots can replace peaches if preferred.
  • Ensure the cobbler topping is completely cooled before combining to preserve texture and avoid melting the cheesecake salad.
