Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 20
Ingredients
  • Crust:
  • 3 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup melted butter
  • Filling:
  • 2 (8-ounce) cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 3 cups whipped topping (3/4 of an 8-ounce container)
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • Topping:
  • 1½ cups granulated sugar
  • 3 tbsp + 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 3 cups cold water
  • 2 (3-ounce) packages Peach Jello
  • 3 cups sliced fresh peaches (or 3 cups frozen peaches, thawed)
  • Orange food coloring (optional)
  • Whipped Topping for garnish (optional)
Instructions
  1. Make the crust:
  2. Lightly grease a 9x13 pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
  3. In a mixing bowl, stir together the graham cracker crumbs and sugar.
  4. Next, add the melted butter and stir until well combined.
  5. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the lightly greased 9x13 pan.
  6. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, or if you don't want to do that, you can bake it at 375 degrees for 8 minutes. (But then it's technically not a no-bake recipe anymore...but sometimes you just don't have time to wait 30 minutes. :))
  7. Make the topping:
  8. In a saucepan, whisk together the sugar and cornstarch.
  9. Add the water and turn the heat to medium-high and stir to dissolve the sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil and boil for 1-2 minutes or until the mixture becomes translucent and thickens.
  10. Remove from heat and add both Jello packets. Mix well.
  11. Next, add the peaches to the Jello mixture. You can add a few drops of orange food coloring at this point, if desired. Place the saucepan in the refrigerator on a hot pad for 20 minutes.
  12. Make the filling:
  13. While the topping is cooling in the fridge, mix softened cream cheese and powdered sugar with a stand mixer or hand mixer until well combined.
  14. Next, add in the whipped topping one cup at a time and mix thoroughly.
  15. Place dollops of the mixture onto the graham cracker crust, and then gently spread it and evenly smooth it out with the back of a spoon over the entire crust. (See photo in "how-to" instructions above.)
  16. Pour the slightly cooled peach mixture over the cream cheese layer. Carefully transfer the pan to the fridge and allow it to set for 4-5 hours or until the topping is firm.
  17. Serve with a dollop of whipped topping, if desired.
  18. Enjoy!
