Ingredients

Scale
  • 15 ounces yellow cake mix
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup peach nectar or juice
  • 1 pound peeled and chopped peaches (about 3-4)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups confectioner's sugar, sifted

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, oil, and peach nectar (plus food coloring if desired) until well blended. Gently fold in the chopped peaches and pour the batter into a greased 9×12 pan. Bake for about 28 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  3. For the icing, combine butter, cream, and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil while stirring continuously. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and sifted confectioner's sugar until smooth.
  4. Quickly pour the frosting over the warm cake for an even coat before it hardens.
  5. Allow the frosting to set at room temperature or refrigerate before slicing.
