How to Make Barb S Fresh Peach Torte

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs and 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter. Add ¼ cup granulated sugar and mix well. Press mixture firmly into the bottom of an 8-inch square baking pan.
  3. Peel and chop 4 large ripe peaches into ½-inch pieces.
  4. In a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set over a pan of simmering water, heat 1 cup mini marshmallows until melted and soft, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and gently stir in the chopped peaches.
  5. Stir in 8 ounces of thawed Cool Whip into the peach mixture until smooth and combined.
  6. Pour the peach and marshmallow mixture into the prepared graham cracker crust.
  7. Sprinkle the reserved ½ cup graham cracker crumbs evenly over the top.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the torte to set completely before serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
