Peaches are in season, and with two overabundant trees I am on the lookout for new recipes. I found this one in a collection of recipe favorites that my mom’s church ward put together. It is wonderful! The little bit of almond extract is the perfect compliment to the sweet sun-ripened taste of summer peaches. It reminds me of an awesome peach pie recipe Melanie has. I’ll have to get her to post it soon. But for now… I highly recommend planning a barbecue with friends to celebrate the last days of summer, and serving this cool treat for dessert. I guarantee it will be a hit!
