PEACH CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter an 8-inch square baking dish.
• Beat the baking mix, vanilla pudding mix, milk, butter, and egg together with an electric mixer in a bowl for 2 minutes; pour into the buttered dish. Chop the peaches and scatter over the mixture.
• Beat the cream cheese, 1/2 cup sugar, and reserved peach juice together in a bowl; pour over the peaches. Stir together the 1 tablespoon sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl; sprinkle over the cream cheese mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set in the center, 30 to 35 minutes.

MINI GEORGIA PEACH CHEESECAKES

Steps:

• Whisk together the ground gingersnaps and pecans in a small mixing bowl. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter and stir into the mixture until combined. Place 1 tablespoon of the crumb mixture into the bottom of each of six 4-ounce jars. Press into an even, compact layer. Set aside.
• To make the filling, place the cream cheese, mascarpone, sour cream, confectioners' sugar, vanilla and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the beater attachment. Whip just until smooth, about 1 minute. Drop 3 tablespoons of filling into each jar. Give each jar a few gentle taps against the counter to even out the filling. Secure the lids on top of the jars and refrigerate to set for at least 1 hour.
• To make the Georgia peach topping, place a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the remaining tablespoon butter and heat until melted. Stir in the brown sugar, ginger and cinnamon. Cook until the sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Add the peaches and stir to coat. Add the bourbon and lemon juice. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the peaches are slightly softened, about 3 minutes more. Set aside to cool.
• Remove the lids from the cheesecake jars. Dollop 1 tablespoon of peach compote on top of each cheesecake. Serve immediately or secure the lids and refrigerate until ready to serve.

PEACH CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325˚ F. Make the crust: Wrap the outside of a 9-inch springform pan with foil. Butter the inside of the pan and line the bottom with gingersnaps, breaking them as needed.
• Make the filling: Beat the cream cheese, sugar, orange zest and salt in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until just combined, then beat in the peach nectar. Pour the filling over the crust and bake until set but the center still jiggles slightly, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely, then refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.
• Make the topping: Toss the peaches with the orange juice and sugar until the sugar dissolves. Spoon over the cheesecake.

PEACH COBBLER CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray.
• Stir together graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar, and salt for crust in a medium bowl until evenly combined. Press crumb mixture along the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set and golden, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes. Leave the oven on.
• Prepare the cheesecake while crust cools: Beat together cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating on low until just combined after each addition. Beat in flour and salt on low until just combined. Beat in bourbon and preserves on low until just combined. Fold in chopped peaches until just combined. Pour filling into the cooled crust.
• Gently jiggle pan to smooth top. Place cheesecake in a plastic slow cooker liner; transfer to a large roasting pan. (Or double wrap the springform pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil.) Place roasting pan in the oven. Pour warm water into the roasting pan to come halfway up sides of pan, making sure you do not get any water into the slow cooker liner.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheesecake is just set on top, about 35 minutes.
• While cheesecake bakes, prepare the topping: Beat butter and sugar in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add egg, beating on low until just combined. Whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a small bowl; add to butter mixture with mixer on low, beating until just combined.
• Open the oven door and carefully slide out rack with cheesecake without removing from oven. Carefully dollop topping mixture by spoonfuls over cheesecake. Carefully slide rack back in and close oven.
• Continue baking until topping is golden on top and cheesecake is almost set in center, about 1 hour. Turn oven off and prop oven door ajar about 1 inch. Let cheesecake stand in oven for 1 hour.
• Remove cheesecake from oven and remove from roasting pan. Let cool at room temperature for 1 hour. Remove cheesecake from the liner and transfer to the refrigerator. Chill, uncovered, at least 6 hours or up to 12 hours. Remove metal collar from cheesecake before slicing and serving.

PEACH MELBA CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Line the base and sides of a 20cm loose-bottomed or springform tin with baking parchment - use smudges of butter to help the paper stay in place around the sides. Put the biscuits in a plastic food bag and crush to crumbs using a rolling pin, then mix thoroughly with the melted butter. Tip into the prepared tin and press down firmly to create an even base. Chill while you prepare the filling.
• Put the soft cheese, icing sugar and vanilla in a bowl, then beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Tip in the cream and continue beating until mixture is combined. Scatter over 100g of the raspberries and half of the peach chunks. Using a spatula, fold in with just a few folds - as you assemble the cheesecake they'll ripple through more.
• Spoon the cream mixture onto the biscuit base, working from the edges inwards. Smooth the top of the cheesecake down with the back of a dessertspoon or spatula. Leave to set in the fridge overnight.
• In a food processor, blitz 250g of the remaining raspberries, sieve, stir back in 1 tsp of the seeds, if you like, and sweeten to taste with icing sugar. Add enough water or canned peach juice to make it saucy and chill until serving.
• Bring the cheesecake to room temperature about 30 mins before serving. If using a loose-bottomed tin, unmould by placing on top of a can, then gradually pull down the sides of the tin. Slip the cheesecake onto a serving plate, removing the lining paper and base. Scatter the remaining raspberries and peach chunks over the cheesecake, dribble over some of the sauce and serve the rest alongside.

WHITE CHOCOLATE PEACH CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• The crust: position a rack in the center of the oven; preheat oven to 350°.
• Lightly grease a 9x3 inch springform pan; cut and 18-inch square of foil and wrap foil around the outside of the pan.
• Add the flours, sugar, salt, ginger, and cinnamon to a food processor; process until blended.
• Add in the butter and process until the mixture forms coarse crumbs; add in the water; process until the dough starts to come together.
• Press the dough into an even layer over the bottom of the prepared pan.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, until it is just beginning to brown; place the pan on a wire rack to cool completely; decrease oven temperature to 325°.
• The filling: add the white chocolate to a stainless steel bowl and set over a medium saucepan filled one third the way with barely simmering water; heat the chocolate, stirring frequently, until it is completely melted and smooth.
• Remove the bowl from the saucepan; let the chocolate cool until tepid.
• In the bowl of an electric stand mixer, using the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese on med-low speed about 2 minutes, until creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary.
• Gradually add the sugar and beat until blended.
• Mix in the vanilla and lemon zest; add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition (scrap down the sides of the bowl as necessary); add in the sour cream; mix until blended.
• Add in the tepid white chocolate; mix until blended.
• Scrape the batter into the cooled crust; place the pan in a roasting pan or large baking pan.
• Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come 1 inch up the sides of the springform pan.
• Bake in the water bath for 65-75 minutes, until the top of the cake is set but slightly wobbly (the cake will set completely as it cools).
• Remove the cake pan from the water bath, transfer to a wire rack, and carefully loosen the foil.
• Immediately run the tip of a paring knife around the sides, to prevent the top from cracking; let the cake cool completely.
• Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours before making the topping.
• The topping: Cut the peaches in half (discard the pits); slice the peach halves about 1/8 inch thick.
• Arrange a circle of peach slices, overlapping them slightly, around the edge of the chilled cheesecake.
• Arrange another circle of wedges in the center, facing the opposite direction, covering the cheesecake completely.
• Pass the apricot preserves through a fine-mesh strainer into a small saucepan.
• Stir in the water; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
• Remove from the heat and, using a pastry brush, brush the tops of the peaches with the hot glaze.
• Refrigerate the cake for at least 1 hour before serving.
• To serve, slice the cheesecake with a sharp thin-bladed knife, dipping the blade in hot water and wiping it dry after each slice.
