Peachy Keen - def. (N)- Super duper, just perfect, hunky dory, jim dandy, two thumbs up.

I love peach desserts!! Cobblers, crumbles, cream cakes, pies, and ice cream. Crumbles are my favorite, so I had to share this delicious recipe. From "In the Kitchen THE COSTCO WAY"

Peach Crisp                                              

 Filling:                                  Topping:

4 large peaches                       1 stick butter or margarine                  

1-2 teaspoons cinnamon           3/4 cup flour

3 tablespoons brown sugar       2/3 cup sugar (I use 1/2 Splenda, 1/2 sugar)

1/2 cup water                        Sprinkles of brown sugar and cinnamon

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

 Tip: I blanch the peaches to peel them easily by dropping them in boiling water for 5 seconds. The skin easily comes off without taking the flesh with it. 

To prepare the filling, wash, peel and slice peaches. Place in a buttered 9x9 inch baking dish and sprinkle with cinnamon and brown sugar. Pour 1/2 cup water over peaches.

 To prepare the topping, cut cold butter into the flour and sugar. (This mixture should be grainy and chunky, not smooth.) Cover the peaches with this mixture. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon to taste. 

Bake for about 50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown. Serve warm, and top with vanilla ice cream or Cool Whip. Serves 8.
