I first tasted this cake about 15 years ago when a dear aunt brought it to a family reunion. I knew I had to have the recipe...and I was thrilled to discover how easy it is to make.—Donna Britsch, Tega Cay, South Carolina

I too would not call this a cake. The crust is more like a pie crust(or buttery shortbread). However,my family LOVED it and wants it again!!

I would not call this a "Cake". The bottom becomes more crispy and dry and the filling is more custard like. It was not something my family enjoyed. I will not be making this again.

I first discovered this easy cake in Quick Cooking 1998. It looked so easy, so I tried it. It was a big hit at the family reunion and at home! This is a fabulous recipe and my kids love to help make it!!

This cake was far too sweet. I made it for a dinner party and no one liked it. It might be better if made with a sugar cookie base and topped with real whipped cream instead of cool whip. Kirsten

I have been making this for years now since I found it in my first FREE issue of Taste Of Home. I think this is the reason I started subscribing to the magazine. I have request all the time to make this for birthdays, or any special occasion, of just because someone wants one. Hint: I buy the diced peach cups, they are the perfect size to use in the cake without having to cut the peaches!! GREAT RECIPE. Thanks
