Description
You’re going to love this one—imagine the burst of fruitiness in every bite, the chewy edges that caramelize just enough, and a frosting that melts and sets into a shiny, crackly top with a deep, caramel-flavored finish.

- 2 (3 oz) Peach Jell-O packets
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup oil
- 1 (16 oz) bag frozen peaches, halved

- 2 cups brown sugar
- ⅔ cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×13 pan.

Notes
Fresh or canned peaches work if drained well. Don’t skip the ice bath—it helps the frosting set perfectly with a dreamy crackle.
