Peach Cream Pie

Grandma Ev made a Peach Cream Pie for Danielle, Scott and me for our week of birthdays....It was absolutely Heavenly and light. I thought everyone may like to try it. Ev says it is very easy to make!

Pie Ingredients:
1/2 pint whipping cream
1 c powdered sugar, divided
6 oz cream cheese
1 (9 inch) baked pie shell
sliced peaches

Glaze Ingredients:
1 c sugar
4 T cornstarch
1 c mashed peaches
1 c water
Yellow food coloring
1/2 t almond flavoring (optional)

Pie Directions: Whip Cream with 1/2 c of powdered sugar. Beat cream cheese with rest of powdered sugar. Fold together the whipped cream mixture and the cream cheese mixture. Spread into cooled pie shell. Cool in fridge for a least 2 hours, then top with sliced fresh peaches.

Glaze Directions: Make a glaze by mixing together surar, cornstarch and mashed peaches, water, almond and about 2 drops food coloring. Boil until clear, stirring constantly. When cool, pour over pie. Delicious!!

**I've tried this pie twice, the last pie Ev made - she made a graham cracker crust and used a bigger pie pan and then doubled the pie filling and topping. Also, she used canned peaches. I like the graham cracker crust the best. ck
