Here I go again. Peaches and bourbon. They just go so well together, and when I am standing in the kitchen with some marvelous summer peaches, I just want to add a little splash. The peaches have been so amazing this year – I’ve jammed, spiced, ketchuped and canned a huge amount. But I went a little overboard on the buying. I created this recipe for a family dinner when I found myself with an overabundance of peaches, and added a touch of bourbon at the end. But I still had more peaches, so I upped the Southern factor by making a sweet tea infused compote, which adds another layer of flavor. You could add a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream, but it is rich enough as is. The cake would also be delicious with Peach Butterbourbon Sauce and the compote would be delicious on its own or stirred into some yogurt for breakfast.
