Let’s Make This Quick Summertime Dessert Together
I flatten the sandwich bread slightly with a rolling pin to make the slices thinner and more flexible, ready to be rolled.
I add the peeled peaches, diced, and just sprinkled with lemon juice.
I roll each slice of filled sandwich bread onto itself to create a roll. I compact well but don’t tighten too much to avoid squeezing the fruit filling and honey cream cheese.
I wrap each filled roll with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
After the resting time, I slice the roll into pieces 1 inch thick with a serrated or well-sharpened knife.
I just have to plate, decorating with amaretti, mint leaves, and more honey or a dusting of powdered sugar.
I swear… devoured in 2 minutes by my nieces and nephews!
Bon appétit and happy cooking!

CLEAR that the number of final swirls depends on how thickly we cut them!
Also clear that the photos taken in the kitchen are dark and terrible… sorry!
Variations
– You can use apricots or plums instead of peaches.
– You can flavor the cream with lemon zest or a splash of amaretto liqueur.
