Peaches and Cream Pie Bars are perfect for taking to parties or potlucks because they can definitely serve a crowd!

This past week I did something super exciting…

I bought airline tickets to Hawaii for my husband and I! I’ve always wanted to go, so for the past several years we have been saving our pennies and we’ve finally made our dream a reality! I can not believe we are actually going.

Pinch me!

We’re heading to Maui for a week, then Kauai for another week. If you have any suggestions on where to stay, places to eat or fun things to do, let me have ’em! I’m all ears! In the meanwhile, I’m celebrating with these delicious Peaches and Cream Pie Bars!

My sister-in-law came up with this recipe and I just had to share it with you. She brought these gorgeous pie bars over for a family gathering and they were a huge hit. The best thing about them is that they are so versatile!

Peaches are in season right now, which makes these perfect, but if it’s not peach season, you can use just about any fruit!

Switch out the peaches for:

• Raspberries, fresh or pie filling
• Blueberries, fresh or pie filling
• Strawberries, fresh or pie filling
• Mango would be a fun one too!

The recipe calls for canned peaches, but you can also use bottled or fresh. You could even use peach pie filling if you want!

Either way you fill it, you’ll love the soft and tender crust with the cream cream layer and fruit filling!

Don’t forget the icing drizzle over the top!

Ingredients

For the Crust:

• 1 cup butter, room temperature
• 2 cups sugar
• 3 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp baking powder

For the Filling:

• 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
• 1 egg
• ½ cup sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 29 oz. can peaches, drained and mashed to small bits, or peach pie filling.

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a (13"x18") rimmed half sheet baking pan with non-stick spray and set aside.

For the Crust:

• Cream together butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each egg. Add in vanilla.
• In a separate bowl combine the flour, salt, and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until a soft dough forms. Reserve 1 heaping cup of the dough and press the remaining dough evenly into the prepared pan.

For the Filling:

• In a clean bowl, beat the cream cheese, egg, ½ cup sugar, and vanilla together until smooth and creamy. Spread over the top of the dough in an even layer. Top with the mashed peaches and drop remaining dough over the filling in small pieces.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes, until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. The center might be slightly jiggly still, but this is ok. Let the bars cool completely.

For the Icing:

• Combine the icing ingredients in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Add more powdered sugar for thicker consistency, or more cream for smoother consistency. Drizzle over the cooled bars, slice and enjoy!

Notes

*Substitute peaches for raspberries, blueberries or strawberries if desired!
