Ingredients

▢ 3 to 4 medium ripe peaches (or about 2 cups canned peaches, drained well)
▢ 1 cup Mexican crema (or sour cream, or plain yogurt)
▢ ½ cup sweetened condensed milk
▢ 1 to 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice (to taste)
▢ 1 to 2 Tablespoons milk (optional, only if you want to loosen the cream)

Instructions

Wash, peel, and pit the peaches, then cut them into small bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
In a blender, add Mexican crema, condensed milk, and lime juice. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Taste and adjust sweetness if needed. The cream should be thick but still pourable. Add a splash of milk if it’s too thick.
In glasses or bowls, layer peaches and cream, adding generous spoonfuls of each.
Chill for 30 minutes before serving for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

Don’t skip the lime juice, it balances the sweetness and makes the cream taste fresher and brighter.
Fresh lemon juice can be used instead of lime, but always use fresh, not bottled.
If using canned peaches, drain them well so the dessert doesn’t become watery.
If using fresh peaches, choose ripe but still firm ones so they hold their shape better.
The cream should be thick but still pourable. Adjust with a little milk if needed.
Serve cold for the best texture and flavor.
If you have leftovers, cover and refrigerate for up to 1 to 2 days. Give it a gentle stir before serving again.
