Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 cups (950 ml) fresh peaches, peeled and diced
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) Greek yogurt
Sweeteners:
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) honey
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) lemon juice
Instructions
- Create a silky peach puree by blending ripe peaches with Greek yogurt, honey, and a splash of lemon juice until achieving a smooth, velvety consistency.
- Prepare the caramel cheesecake filling by whipping cream cheese until ultra-smooth, then incorporating caramel sauce, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract into a rich, decadent mixture.
- Carefully fold freshly whipped cream into the caramel cheesecake base, ensuring a light and airy texture without deflating the mixture.
- Layer the dessert in a clear glass dish or individual serving vessels, alternating between the vibrant peach puree and creamy caramel cheesecake mixture.
- Create visual interest by building multiple layers, ensuring each spoonful contains a perfect balance of flavors and textures.
- Crown the trifle with a sprinkle of crunchy granola or crushed graham crackers for added dimension and textural contrast.
- Accent the dessert with delicate fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and subtle herbal note.
- Refrigerate for minimum 1 hour to allow flavors to meld and achieve optimal serving temperature, ensuring a chilled and refreshing dessert experience.
Notes
- Customize sweetness by adjusting honey levels in the peach whip, ensuring a perfectly balanced flavor profile for different taste preferences.
- Create a gluten-free version by using certified gluten-free granola or almond meal instead of traditional graham crackers for the topping.
- Maximize creaminess by ensuring cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing, preventing lumps and creating a smoother cheesecake layer.
- Prepare components in advance and assemble just before serving to maintain the crisp texture of the granola and keep layers distinct and visually appealing.
