16ouncescream cheese (2-8oz packages),softened to room temperature
1cuppowdered sugar
1teaspoonpure vanilla extract
16 ouncesCool Whip, thawed,divided
2cans(21 ounce each) Peach pie filling
Instructions
Grease a 13x9 baking dish with butter or shortening, or line with parchment paper. Set pan aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, and melted butter until all the crumbs are moistened. Reserve about 1/4 cup of the crust for the topping.
Firmly press the crumbs into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Freeze crust while you make the filling.
For the filling, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat for several minutes until smooth and creamy. Fold in 8 ounces of the whipped topping. Spread over the chilled crust.
Pour both cans of pie filling over the cheesecake layer and spread evenly. Then carefully spread the remaining 8 ounces of Cool Whip over the top. Sprinkle with reserved graham cracker crust crumbs.
Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 6 hours (or overnight).
Notes
You'll need about 13 graham crackers for the crust. Or you can buy store bought crumbs.
Keep dessert covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Or freeze for up to 30 days.
Fresh or canned peach slices (drained) can also be used for a slightly different take on the dessert.
