I got the cutest letter
0:03
from this young woman named Kimberly,
0:06
and she is from Canada,
0:11
she wrote me a long letter,
0:12
but I'm gonna try to condense it
0:14
and tell y'all about it
0:16
while I start putting her recipe together that she sent me,
0:20
that her mom's been making forever called PeachesNCream,
0:24
and it's really easy, sounds really easy.
0:27
I'm just gonna do it in steps though.
0:30
So we're gonna put a stick of butter
0:34
in a sauce pan and melt it.
0:42
I think my eyes got wet yesterday.
0:44
So we're gonna melt that butter,
0:45
and we're gonna stir in our graham cracker crumbs
0:50
and we're gonna press it into a 13 by 9 by 2 pan.
0:56
she left home to go to college,
0:57
so she went to her mother's pantry
1:00
and started taking some things
1:01
that she could eat while she was off at college,
1:06
and one of them was a can of peaches
1:09
because her mama always made that, so she took 'em,
1:13
didn't use them for four years.
1:17
She brought all the groceries back home
1:19
'cause she said, "I don't believe in wasting food,"
1:23
and when they were making it,
1:25
her boyfriend, who is now her husband
1:30
said, "It smells like feet in here.
1:33
Something stinks so bad,"
1:36
Kimberly and her mother didn't smell anything,
1:39
so they sat down to eat and then it was time to eat dessert.
1:42
They got to the dessert,
1:45
and the man said, "This tastes like feet."
1:50
So Kimberly's daddy got up and went to the trash can
1:53
to get the can of peaches.
1:56
They had expired seven years prior,
2:00
so that was the dirty feet smell.
2:03
Kimberly, that story really made me laugh,
2:06
and I wanna show y'all her picture.
2:14
and she's due to give birth to a little girl anytime now.
2:20
So Kimberly, I love your story.
2:21
She started watching me during the pandemic, and
2:28
just precious girl, and thank you for sharing.
2:32
I know everybody's gonna love this recipe,
2:35
because those people that don't have access
2:38
to fresh peaches, you know, it's fine to use the cans.
2:42
Okay, I'm gonna cut that off, it's melted good enough,
2:45
so stir this together.
2:50
And there's really no cooking in this recipe,
2:55
as far as going into an oven.
2:58
Doesn't require any bakin'.
3:05
So I just wanna make sure that
3:09
butter is mixed up real good in all those crumbs
3:12
so it'll stick together.
3:30
If you have availability to fresh peaches,
3:36
I sure would make this
3:41
Of course, you'd have to cook off the peaches
3:53
Just press that down as good as you can.
3:56
I'm gonna use this same pot
4:03
heat my peaches and my sugar and my corn starch together
4:08
because we want this to cook until it's thick.
4:10
So you drain your peaches,
4:14
put enough water to equal two cups.
4:20
I'm gonna start with that.
4:23
I'm gonna add my sugar.
4:26
I'm gonna add my corn starch.
4:38
Usually I put a little water in corn starch,
4:40
but I think this'll work out fine.
4:46
Just might wanna use a whisk
4:51
to break down the corn starch.
5:00
This sounds like a real nice summer dessert, Kimberly.
5:06
All right, now I'm gonna add our canned peaches,
5:11
29 ounce can of peaches.
5:21
So we'll just let that come to a boil and thicken.
5:24
While we're waiting on this to boil,
5:27
come to boil and thicken,
5:29
I'm gonna take an eight ounce package of cream cheese
5:32
and a cup of white sugar,
5:39
and I'm gonna cream that together.
5:44
of heavy cream whipped,
5:47
so now we're gonna fold in, step four,
5:50
we're gonna fold in the cream cheese
5:54
and the sugar that we've creamed together.
5:58
We're gonna fold it in to the whipped cream.
6:08
It's already sounding very good, Kimberly.
6:13
You might be my girl.
6:20
You know, I'm like you and your mama.
6:23
I don't like wasting food,
6:26
but sometimes it pays to read the expiration dates,
6:38
All right, I'm gonna cut our peaches off,
6:43
and these have to cool
6:45
before we can mix this and this with each other
6:49
because the hot peaches would break down
6:59
So I'm gonna pour that in there,
7:02
and I'm gonna stick this in the refrigerator.
7:06
Probably should have done this step first,
7:10
so it could have been cooling.
7:17
So we'll be back in a few minutes then,
7:20
hopefully with some cool peaches.
7:26
we've got our fourth steps here.
7:28
We had our peaches that we cooked and thickened,
7:32
we had our graham cracker crust,
7:35
we had our cream cheese and sugar,
7:40
sweetened whipped cream that-
7:42
No, we didn't sweeten the whipped cream,
7:44
we just beat the whipped cream.
7:48
the cream cheese mixture,
7:50
so we got it together and it looks delicious, girl.
7:54
So she tells us to spread half
7:58
of our cream cheese mixture
8:01
onto our graham cracker crust,
8:06
and I hope I can get that done
8:08
because normally, I would
8:11
cook off a graham cracker crust so it could harden,
8:18
but she didn't say to do that, so I'm not gonna do it.
8:21
So I'm gonna just do this very carefully
8:24
so it won't pull the crust up.
8:28
So now we're just gonna
8:46
This will probably be the challenging part.
8:57
The spread on top of that syrup,
9:03
try to put little dollops close together,
9:08
and hopefully I can easily
9:13
make it into one whole layer
9:27
This hasn’t been in the refrigerator a whole long time.
9:30
But Eddie said, I want a piece of that like right now.
9:33
So I said, Okay, I'll go ahead and
9:45
Yes, I did spray it, didn’t I.?
9:47
Well, this wasn't even baked, was it?
9:48
No, No cook on this one.
10:00
The crust flipped over, Guss we’ll find it.
10:09
There you go, monkey.
10:13
And in the mean time,
10:14
I'm going to come over here.
10:23
Get out that stuck piece.
10:43
And it's not overpoweringly sweet.
10:51
Thank you, darling, for sharing that recipe with us.
10:56
It sure enough good. Yum!
11:08
it's beautiful, girl.
11:10
I thank you so much for sharing this with me
11:14
so I could share it with millions of other people.
11:19
I thank you so much,
11:21
and hopefully you've had that sweet little baby girl by now,
11:25
and she'll learn to love this
11:27
as much as you learned to love it
11:29
when you were a little girl.
11:31
