Peach Caramel Whipped Cream
Billowy fluffy whipped cream with peaches and homemade caramel mixed in. It’s an easy to make cloud-like experience, and it simply tastes divine over a delicious pecan pie.
Of course it’s perfect to set a big bowl full out on the holiday dessert table so that your guests can serve themselves.
It’s also great for any time of year.
Serve it over pound cake or ice cream for a special birthday treat.
Spoon some over grilled peaches in the summer for a lightly sweet end to the day.
Make a delicious parfait or trifle using the whipped confection.
Use frozen peaches for this treat
And the great part is that this fun topping uses frozen peaches so it can be made year-round. Just make sure that the peaches you get to use in this sauce are peeled already.

Variations on the recipe
Want a more intense peach caramel sauce that’s not billowy? Simply omit the final step of whipping the 1 cup additional cream and folding it into the peach caramel sauce. Oh my, it’s so tasty like this; it’s just not as billowy or fluffy.
Pecan Pie
Pecan Pie is one of the best desserts to ever grace the thanksgiving and Christmas table. The rich and distinctive flavor of this Southern pie is perfect for the holidays.
Enjoy your pie warm with some of my Peach Caramel Whipped Cream for a special treat.

How to prepare your pecan pie
If you’re serving it later, place the pie in the freezer to maintain freshness and quality.
The day before you’re ready to eat, place the pie in the fridge to thaw it.
Once thawed, lightly brush the crust with melted butter and an optional sprinkle of brown sugar.
Place the pie in a preheated 300° F oven for 10-15 minutes.
Wait 10 minutes after removing the pie from the oven to slice and serve this beauty.
Serve with freshly whipped cream, caramel sauce, or (the best ever) my Peach Caramel Whipped Cream.

It is almost tradition to have a slice of pie at the end of Thanksgiving Dinner. I like most pies. I don’t think I have a set favorite.

Apple pie an Pecan Pie are a tie for my favorite! I actually have never made a pie before. I went to my grandmother’s growing up for Thanksgiving and to my in-laws for the past 15 years. I usually bring a broccoli casserole for thanksgiving 🙂

We are a house divided – the favorite holiday pies are pecan, pumpkin, and apple so I have to make all. I always make apple pies from scratch because we always have apples. I make pumpkin pies from canned pumpkin and sometimes just buy them. My favorite is pecan but I always buy them because mine have never turned out right!
Brooke Rose
Hmm, I love all sorts of pies. I’d have to go with a home made pecan pie! Yum~
