After tasting this cake, guests always ask for a second slice...and the recipe, writes Samantha Jones from her kitchen in Morgantown, West Virginia. Everyone is surprised when they learn this dessert is so easy to make. I often garnish servings with pear slices instead of peaches. Ingredients:
1 can (15 ounces) pear halves, drained |
1 package white cake mix (regular size) |
3 eggs |
1 jar (12 ounces) peach preserves, divided |
1 cup sliced peeled peaches or frozen unsweetened sliced peaches, thawed |
Directions:
1. Place pears in a blender, cover and process until pureed. Transfer to a large bowl; add the cake mix and eggs; beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on medium for 2 minutes.
2. Pour into a greased and floured 10-in. fluted tube pan. Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack.
3. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat 1/2 cup of peach preserves, uncovered, on high for 45-60 seconds or until melted. Slowly brush over warm cake. Cool completely.
4. Slice cake; top with peaches. Melt remaining preserves; drizzle over top. Yield: 12 servings.
