Peach Filling
- 3 cups fresh peaches, peeled and sliced (or well-drained canned peaches)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Cheesecake Filling
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Assembly
- 8 waffle cones
- Optional toppings: crumbled graham crackers, toasted pecans or almonds
- Prepare the Peach Cobbler Filling: Peel and slice fresh peaches or thoroughly drain canned peaches. In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and stir in sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add the peaches and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and becomes slightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely before assembling.
- Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with sugar and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy, without lumps. This filling will balance the sweet peach flavor with its tangy richness.
- Assemble the Cones: Carefully spoon the cheesecake filling into each waffle cone, filling them about halfway. Top with a generous portion of the cooled peach cobbler filling. For added texture, sprinkle optional crumbled graham crackers or chopped nuts on top.
- Chill Before Serving: Stand the filled cones upright in a cone holder or sturdy cup and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This chilling step allows the cheesecake filling to set and the flavors to meld perfectly before serving.
Notes
- Use ripe, juicy peaches for the best flavor and texture.
- Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing to avoid lumps.
- Secure cones upright during assembly and chilling to prevent spills.
- Do not overcook peach filling; stop once thickened but not mushy.
- Prepare fillings ahead of time and assemble cones just before serving for maximum freshness.
- Leftover cones should be stored refrigerated in airtight containers and eaten within 2 days as cones may soften.
- Freeze fillings separately if you want to store longer and maintain cone crispness.
