Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2-3 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 15 oz. cans peaches, drained and juice reserved
  • 2-3 packages shortbread or pecan cookies

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk and cream with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually mix in lime juice until mixture reaches the consistency of pudding.
  • Dip each cookie in the reserved peach juice, then place cookies side by side in a 9x13 inch pan, until the bottom of the pan is covered with cookies. Spread half of the cream cheese mixture over the cookies. Repeat the cookie and filling layers once.
  • Top the dessert with the drained peaches. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.

Notes

I used Pepperidge Farm Chessmen cookies in this recipe. If you use a thinner shortbread, you may want to make three layers rather than two.
