Layered Peach Dessert

Oh peach season....how I've missed you!  This yummy treat reminded me a lot of the Peaches and Cream dessert that I've had numerous times.  This one is definitely worth a try!  I found this one on Creations By Kara.

Crust:

1 pkg. Vanilla wafers, finely crushed

Filling:

1 8 oz pkg. cream cheese, softened
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup butter, softened
10 fresh peaches, sliced

Topping:

1 pt. whipping cream
½ cup sugar
½ tsp vanilla
(I subbed the homemade version for Cool Whip to make it faster)
Place half of the crumbs in a 9×13 pan. Whip cream cheese, sugar, and butter together until smooth. Drop by spoonfuls over the crumbs. Spread carefully using a spoon dipped in hot water. Keep dipping the spoon in the water so the mixture doesn’t stick to it. The crumbs will slide around, but that is okay. It doesn’t need to be perfectly smooth. Arrange the sliced peaches over the top. Whip the cream and add sugar and vanilla. Spread over the peaches. Sprinkle last half of crumbs over top. Cover and chill 8 hours, or over night.
