Honey peaches and cream pudding

Following the structure of a classic banana pudding, this honeyed peach pudding is here to make the most out of the peach season and celebrate the orange-fleshed juicy fruit. With layers of honey-sweetened peaches, silky vanilla pudding, freshly whipped cream, and crisp vanilla wafers to soak up the spiced peach juices, it's easy to see how this dessert tastes like summer on a plate. Great for working through those overripe peaches on your counter in the middle of summer, this recipe uses three pounds of them, ensuring each scoop has a tender peach to bite into.

While the recipe doesn't call for it, peeling the peaches yields a silkier texture if you have a chance to tackle that process.
