Our state grows excellent peaches, and this is one recipe I'm quick to pull out when they are in season. It's a tender, moist cake that receives rave reviews wherever I take it. -Betty Jean Gosnell, Inman, South Carolina

This cake is great! I used 4 large peaches diced and also salted butter. I baked it 70 minutes. It is so moist and delicious! I am sure it will freeze well too.

This cake would be good without the peaches, but the addition of peaches makes it great. I made a couple of improvements after the first time I made this. First of all, I made sure I drained the peaches pretty well. After peeling and chopping them, put them in a wire strainer over a bowl to drain. Then I laid them on a paper towel and dried them a little. Also, I had a dark pan, so I lowered the oven temp to 325 and cooked it quite a bit longer. I have made this several times, and everyone who has eaten it loves it!

I loved the texture of this cake but it seemed like something was missing. I used unsalted butter but would make it with salted butter next time.

I made this in a 9X13 pan and baked it at 350* for 45 - 50 minutes. Very nice texture and flavor.

Very, very moist and dense cake. Would pair up perfectly with any type of fruit sauce or ice cream topping. Used 7 fresh peaches..took a little longer to bake but BOY was it good!

Really moist pretty cake to serve in the summer. Be sure to bake it long enough because of all the moisture from the peaches.Serve with vanilla ice cream.
