    Creamy Peach Squares are so easy and the perfect, layered, no bake dessert, with cream cheese, a graham cracker crust, and canned peaches in every bite!

    Creamy Peach Squares

    Peaches and Cream Cheese Dessert

    I love these easy peach bars because of how great it tastes, so light and refreshing, and because most of the time I have all of the ingredients already in my home, just begging to be used!

    These Easy Creamy Peach Squares are one of those desserts that look like they took a lot of time and a great deal of effort to prepare. In my opinion, neither are true. I am excited to see whether you agree or disagree with me!

    Layered Peaches and Cream Dessert 

    I have always loved anything that is layered, especially desserts. They look prettier, especially if you are able to get a great slice and with this dessert that is definitely possible.

    My husband doesn’t believe that the layers matter so if he is serving these fine looking peach squares he just scoops them into a bowl.

    He believes this peaches and cream cheese dessert looks better with “swirls” and I think you can easily imagine what an uneven scoop would look like. 

    Frankly, he is correct that surprisingly his scoops look pretty good. I just like the slices better.

    Peach Dessert with Graham Cracker Crust

    I love using graham cracker crumbs as a base for so many desserts. My husband actually thinks I could eat the crumbs by the spoonful, right out of the box!

    For the record I have not done that yet, but I suppose you just never know, anything is truly possible. 

    I think that graham cracker crumbs go perfectly with the peaches and creamy, cheesy filling. I just wouldn’t change a thing!

    No Bake Canned Peach Dessert

    The creamy, peach filling is nothing short of divine! Alright, a slight exaggeration but you get the point! Anyone that I have ever served it to agrees that it is wonderful and I can’t wait to hear if you think so too!

    If you are using fresh fruit all you have to do is chop or slice about 2 cups of your chosen fruit. Pick a complimentary juice as you will be needing about 1 ¾ cups of it as well! You will not be disappointed in the result. We never are!

    Most enjoy a creamy, cheesy, fruit filled flavor explosion in every bite, no matter which fruit you choose to use. In this case, simpler is better! We tried adding so many additional flavors to the cream cheese mixture and were never happy with the result.

    My husband always says that I have a tendency to make things more complicated than necessary and in this case he was right so I left well enough alone! Sometimes i just have to admit defeat!
