Gooey Peach Cake image

What's better than an easy to make recipe that also tastes delicious?! This sweet take on a classic is a fun way to quickly whip up an impressive dinnertime dessert. This is no ordinary cake. It's more like a sticky, gooey cake with an absolutely yummy, slightly crunchy top. Sort of like a cobbler. When you slice a piece, it may...

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pkg yellow cake mix
eggs, oil, water, as directed on box
2 can(s) sliced or diced peaches, 16 oz
1/2 c brown sugar
1 Tbsp corn starch
1/8 tsp almond extract (optional)
sliced almonds (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. In a large bowl, mix cake batter as directed on box. For a more rustic cake, you can leave it a bit clumpy. (This is one point where you could add extract.)
  • 2. In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and corn starch until well combined.
  • 3. In a small nonstick skillet, heat peaches in juice, breaking them up a little. (You can also add the extract here if you choose to use it.)
  • 4. Add the brown sugar mixture and stir until thickened.
  • 5. In an ungreased 9x13 cake pan (I use Pyrex, which comes with a lid for storage and transport) pour cake batter.
  • 6. Drop peaches by large spoonfuls all over the batter.
  • 7. If you want almonds, sprinkle them on at this point.
  • 8. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-35 minutes. Don't overbake; it's best when it's still a little gooey.
  • 9. Serve hot or cold, with ice cream or milk, or sneak spoonfuls from the pan every time you pass the kitchen. ;)
