Notes
- *Peeling Peaches tip: Ripe peaches will peel very easily. If they aren't super ripe, blanch peaches by putting them in boiling hot water for 1 min. This will make removing the skins much easier.**Make-ahead tip: You can leave it at room temperature overnight if you want to serve it the next day and sprinkle powdered sugar just before serving.
