Peach Treat

This was a tasty, refreshing little treat but waaaay too much for my family of two. Next time I will definitely half the recipe.

Of course I screwed up the recipe. SMH, I really don't know how I manage sometimes! LOL Check out A Little Tipsy for the original recipe. Below is how mine turned out. It went a little something like this:

Ingredients

•  2/3 cup powdered sugar
• 1 cup butter, softened
• 2 pkg graham crackers, crushed
• 1/3 cups oats
• 7-8 large peaches 
• 1 can sweetened condensed milk
• 1/4 cup lemon juice 
•  Cool Whip 

Directions

• Mix graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, oats, and butter together. Put a layer in the bottom of your pan, saving some to sprinkle on top. 
• Mix the lemon juice with the can of sweetened condensed milk. Pour over the peaches and mix until peaches are coated. 
• Pour peach mixture into pan over crust. 
• Top with Cool Whip
• Sprinkle with left over crust mixture. 

Mine looked more like this one.

So the original recipe called for whipping cream, I am assuming to make your own whipped topping. My oversight of that ingredient and getting Cool Whip instead is sort of comical. It was probably a Freudian slip. See, I love Cool Whip. I have ever since I was a kid. If we have it, I will sneak a spoon full from time to time and have even been known to have a bowl of it like ice cream. I LOVE it.

Anyway, it turned out fine. I assume not much different than the original recipe. The lemon was a little overbearing on the first day, but seemed to have not been as bad the second day. It doesn't have a very long shelf life so either eat it fast or prepare it for when you are planning to have company.
