Peach Shortcake


I love peaches. Ripe, slightly soft, sweet smelling peaches. I look forward to them in cobblers, mostly. However I was browsing my new online subscription of Cook's Illustrated and found a recipe for a Peach Shortcake. All my taste-bud-alarms went off and I just had to make it. I wasn't disappointed and this could be my new favorite way to have peaches! This dessert is not too sweet, and I love the addition of the peach-schnapps crushed peaches that soaks into the shortcake underneath the sugared peaches on top.
