Peach Icebox Cake

🧂 Ingredients

• 4 cups heavy cream
• ½ cup confectioners' sugar

  (icing sugar or powdered sugar)
• 1 teaspoon almond extract
• 6 large peaches

  sliced
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  more if needed
• 24 graham crackers
• 8 ounces caramels

  remove wrappers
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream

Instructions

• 1 Prepare your 9 x 13 inch dish by spraying with non-stick spray or you can line
  it with plastic wrap or tinfoil.
• 2 Next, combine the heavy cream, powdered sugar and almond extract in a mixing
  bowl. Use a hand mixer with to beat the whipping cream till it is fluffy. Start
  mixing slowly to start, then speed up as it thickens. This will prevent a huge
  mess from being made. One the mixture is fluffy you can set it aside.
• 3 Peel all your peaches and slice them up. Then, combine the sliced peaches and
  lemon juice in a bowl. Toss until the peaches are coated completely. Start with
  one tablespoon and only add second if needed. Set aside
• 4 Dab a small amount of whipped cream mixture on the bottom of the pan. This will
  help your graham crackers stick and not move around while assembling the rest of
  the cake.
• 5 Add one layer of graham crackers, then one layer of peach mixture. Repeat this
  process so you have 3 layers of each in the pan.
• 6 Cover with the dish with plastic wrap and place in fridge overnight so the
  graham crackers become soft like cake. I would say the minimum time to let it
  set up would 1 ½ hours but overnight is a good option if you want soft layers.
• 7 Remove from fridge and set aside while you make the caramel, if desired. It's
  good without the caramel too!
• 8 Serve with or without the caramel topping!
• 9 Combine the caramels and heavy cream in a medium size microwave safe bowl.
• 10 Carefully place the bowl in the microwave and cook for about 1 to 1 ½ minutes.
  Check the mixture every 30 seconds to make sure you’re not overheating it and
  it’s smooth when stirred. It should only take a few minutes. Remove carefully
  and whisk until smooth.
• 11 Finally, drizzle the caramel sauce over top layer of peaches. You can let it
  cool a bit before pouring it over the cake if you like.
• 12 Slice the cake and serve!
