Melted butter,and cold butter, recipes states to mix the melted butter, what about the solid butter, I am confused
Chef Dennis Littley says
there is no mention of cold butter that I can find. Where did you see it?
Katrina says
I just made this for breakfast this morning…yummilicious! I substituted 1/4” pineapple slices for the peaches and topped it with a white chocolate ganache from another of Chef Dennis’ recipes. I even substituted a milk/mayonnaise combo for the heavy cream in ganache and it still all turned out absolutely perfect. I can’t wait to try more of Chef Dennis’ recipes. Thank you!

I was looking for recipes with cottage cheese to use up my Costco size tub. (Pandemic shopping)
Holy cow, this is delicious!!! I didn’t have peaches so I used frozen mangos. Now I wish I had more Costco size yogurt! Thank you!

Gina says
Yumm!
I’ve been looking at this recipe forever.
I finally made it because it’s cold outside and wanted to have something delicious for when my daughter came home from school .
Superb recipe!
I used cake flour, because it was all that I had.so had to add a little more flour to the mix.
Piled in frozen peaches and went crazy with some blueberries too! Thank you ! My kid thanks you!
Chef Dennis Littley says
Thank you for the great review Gina, and I’m happy to hear you and your kids enjoyed the cake!
Mary says
Thank you so much for creating this recipe combining two of my favorites… Cottage cheese and peaches. I made this for our church group and got rave reviews. I used strawberry Greek yogurt for added flavor. It’s a creamy consistency wrapped in a textured cake. Next time I might add a little more peach juice and a lot more peaches as they sink so nicely into the batter as it cooks so you have a peach in every piece.!
Chef Dennis Littley says
Thank you for such a nice comment and review Mary. I love to hear success stories from my readers.
Bec @ Cook Love Eat says
That is great for breakfast – I am the worst culprit – so I would definitely have to make it the evening before – do you know if it freezes well? I could make a few ahead!
thank you!
Chef Dennis Littley says
The cake didn’t last long enough to freeze but it should be okay frozen. It is a moister cake so it may get a little moister and looser when it thaws. It certainly would be worth a try to have them ready in the freezer.
