It was good but I just wasn't wowed by it. It turned out well just not worthy of my favorites cook book.

This is one of my favorite summer desserts when peaches are in season! I have made it three or four times and it is always raved about!

I made this for Mondays dessert, my family loved it. I gave the recipe to my daughter in laws to take home.

Made with fresh peaches, it was easy and quite tasty. Next time I will slice peaches thinner to make cutting into them when eating a bit easier. Quite a light and refreshing dessert.

We love this dessert! My brother had it for his birthday dessert and my grandmother has brought it over for a special treat many a time. Delicious and yummy......I can never have just one piece! Wish I could do something about the fat and calories though, but otherwise, a fantastic dessert!

I modified it by making a graham cracker crust and using apricot gelatin. I also used canned peaches and left out the pineapple juice. The gelatin thickened up nicely and I only refrigerated it for about 4 hours before serving it. It was a big hit.

This was easy to make, and VERY good. Everyone at our family reunion loved it, and it will definitely show up at our holiday dinners in the future.

I made this dessert for our Home Fellowship group and it was very well received. Gel topping worked out well. Make sure to cook it long enough to thicken plenty and it will firm up overnight. It won't be hard and should not be runny. Light and refreshing for a summer dessert.

Was very good but the top didn't set up very well and ended up being soupy in the pan.
