Make the Cake
- Beat the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter with white sugar until combined.
- Add cream cheese and beat for another minute on high speed.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating each time until combined. Then add the milk and vanilla and mix well.
- Mix flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the flour mixture to the bowl with wet ingredients and mix well. The resulting dough should be thick, without lumps.
- Spread half of the dough on top of the peaches.
- Put the rest of the peaches on the dough, spreading them to cover the batter.
- Cover the peaches with the remaining batter.
- Cover the baking dish with foil. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 20 minutes.
- Let the finished upside-down cake cool for 15 minutes, then carefully invert the baking dish onto a plate or cutting board.
Notes
- Choosing the right peaches is vital to a great peach upside down cake. Use fresh, ripe, but firm peaches.
- Peeling the peaches is optional.
- You can arrange the peach slices in a pretty pattern or just spread them out in the cake pan, whichever you prefer. Just keep them in a single layer.
