Looking for a no-fuss dessert that feels like it came straight from a French patisserie? This peach and mascarpone treat is here to charm your spoon! With sun-ripened peaches, a whisper of vanilla and cinnamon, and those delightfully spiced speculoos crumbles — each spoonful is a mini celebration.
Ingredients
For the Peach & Cream Layers:
- 3 ripe peaches, peeled and diced
- 250g mascarpone cheese
- 100g thick sour cream (or crème fraîche)
- 50g sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- A pinch of ground cinnamon
For the Crunchy Topping:
- 100g crushed speculoos cookies (Biscoff works perfectly!)
- Fresh mint leaves, for garnish
Instructions
1. Prep the Peaches
Peel and dice the peaches into small cubes.
If your peaches aren’t super sweet, toss them with a teaspoon of sugar and set aside while you prepare the cream.
2. Make the Mascarpone Cream
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mascarpone, sour cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
Whip gently with a hand mixer or whisk until smooth, creamy, and lightly airy.
3. Assemble the Glasses
Layer your dessert glasses or small jars as follows:
- A spoonful of mascarpone cream
- A layer of diced peaches
- Repeat until the glasses are nearly full
4. Add the Crunch & Chill
Top each glass with a generous sprinkle of crushed speculoos cookies.
Garnish with a mint leaf for a refreshing finish.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to mingle and the cream to set slightly.
Serve & Enjoy
These glass desserts are best served chilled — ideal for warm weather gatherings, elegant dinners, or a personal treat at the end of a long day.
