Ingredients

For the Cake
  • 30.5 ounces vanilla cake mix (2 boxes)
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup butter melted (2 sticks, unsalted
  • 6 large egg
For the Streusel
  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 10 tablespoons butter melted (1¼ sticks, unsalted
For the Peaches
  • 4 cups peach skin on (from about 5 peaches, sliced
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
For the Whipped Filling
  • 1½ cups powdered sugar
  • 8 ounces cream cheese room temperature (1 brick)
  • 1 cup mascarpone cheese room temperature
  • 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract pure
  • 1½ cups heavy cream cold

Instructions

For the Cake
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line the bottom of 3 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper and spray with nonstick baking spray. Set aside.
  2. Mix the cake mix, water, butter, and eggs together in a large bowl. Divide the cake batter between the cake pans (about 614 grams per pan) and smooth out.
  3. Place the pans into the oven to bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with slightly moist crumbs. Once baked, remove from the oven and place onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
For the Streusel
  1. While the cakes cool, make the streusel topping: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Whisk the oats and brown sugar together in a medium-sized bowl. Add the melted butter and stir until well combined. Spread the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in a ¼-inch thick layer.
  3. Place the pan into the oven (still at 350°F) to bake for 18 minutes. Once baked, remove from the oven and place onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
  4. Once the streusel has cooled, break it apart into small, crumbly pieces, no larger than the size of a nickel. Put the crumb in a medium-sized bowl and set aside until the cake is ready to be assembled.
For the Peaches
  1. While the cakes and streusel cool, stir together the peaches, sugar, and lemon juice. Set aside until the cake is ready to be assembled.
For the Whipped Filling
  1. Place the powdered sugar, cream cheese, mascarpone cheese, and vanilla into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat together on high speed for 2 minutes or until the mixture is smooth, fluffy, and has soft peaks. Spoon the mixture into a separate bowl and set aside.
  2. Add the heavy cream to the stand mixer bowl. Use the whisk attachment to whip the heavy cream on high speed for about 4 minutes, or until stiff peaks have formed.
  3. Once the heavy cream is stiff, add the cream cheese mixture and fold together with a rubber spatula until smooth and combined. Set aside until ready to assemble.
Assembly
  1. Start by removing a cake layer from the pan and placing it onto a cake stand or serving plate. Spread ⅓ of the whipped frosting onto the top of the cake. Next, layer on ⅓ of the sliced peaches, then sprinkle ⅓ of the streusel over the peaches and frosting. Place a layer of cake directly on top and repeat the same steps on top of the second layer of cake.
  2. Top with the final layer of cake and top with the remaining frosting, peaches, and streusel.

Notes

  • Storage: Store peach cobbler cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
