Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
- 16 ounces (450 grams) cream cheese

- 1 cup peach preserves
Crust Ingredients:
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1/4 cup sugar
Topping and Finishing Ingredients:
- 2 fresh peaches, sliced
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Craft a buttery graham cracker foundation by combining crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Press firmly into a springform pan and bake at 325F for 10 minutes until lightly golden.
