We brought out the basket to pick the hundred peaches off our tree. The baseball sized fruit is ready and I am not letting any birds peck at them before I get them. You can eat them right off the branch, but it's best to have 2 napkins for these juicy beauties. Somewhere in the back of my mind is the goal to can this abundance, but in the meantime my favorite treat is to serve them up sliced with whipped cream. No there isn't any cobbler in there, just peaches and cream. It's a wonderful, easy treat on a hot night.
Whipped Cream
from:
Betty Crocker's Cookbook
For 1 cup whipped cream: Beat 1/2 cup whipping (heavy) cream and 1 tbs powdered sugar in a chilled small bowl with electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form. I omit the sugar and opt for 1 tsp vanilla.
