What a sweet treat! Fresh summer peaches loaded with sweet, crushed amaretto cookies and brown sugar, blended together with warm butter! Chocolate Amaretti Peaches are delicious with warm chocolate drizzled all over the top after being broiled to a golden brown color. We were amazed at such an unexpected flavor combination. We were “Wowed”! After devouring them, we were thinking of other ways to us the cookie/brown sugar/butter topping: as a crumble topping covering cherries, or apples, or whatever fruit you enjoy. The Amaretti cookie crumb topping is what made this simple dessert shine! Here is a link to purchase Amaretti cookies online –> Amaretti Cookies
This month the Cooking Light Virtual Supper Club’s theme is “Al Fresco Dining”, a time to prepare recipes to enjoy eating outside. This theme is so welcome to me now that the first session of teaching summer school is over and behind me. In June, I was indoors all day, every weekday. And now I’m FREE to be outside . . . my favorite place!

These look amazing Roz! In a month when we have some peaches I’ll give them a try.
Later this fall we’ll visit Piemonte where amaretti cookies originated – one of the wee towns we visit is called Mobruzzo – they have been making amaretti cookies with the same recipe for almost 200 years. I’m going to be tucking some of those into my luggage!
Roz I made these last year and they are fabulous, mine never looked this good though nice job love them… the flavors are magnificent and your presentation is over the top!
Beautiful. I can taste the Amaretti cookies now.
Jerry might need to tuck an extra pack of those cookies for me.
Rozz absolutely beautiful!! gloria
Roz, this is stunning. Absolutely stunning. What a great way to focus on summer peaches in a elegant way.
Have I mentioned how much I enjoy your blog?
Cheers.

They just sound so amazing Roz. I can’t wait for “dripping down the arm” juicy local peaches. I sure do miss my peach tree:D
Peaches, amaretti and dark chocolate. What a heavenly combination. Your photo also looks lovely, very well done!
Amaretto cookies you say… WOW I love those Roz. Bet these peach desserts were like eating a slice of heaven!
I agree, this is an unexpected combo. But one that looks so very good!
Dear Roz,
I truly believe you could make anything and it would be delicious! I just love seeing your newest creations!

oh my goodness, what a fantastic looking creation! I have to taste one of these!
Oh, Roz, these look fabulous! I am eagerly awaiting our local peaches so I can try these beauties~
PS…I just saw your comment about being from Iowa. Now, I know this is a long shot (I’m from Iowa, too), but you don’t happen to be from Ames and a sister of my dear friend, Kelly? I just had to ask~
Absolutely lovely Roz. The peaches have been fabulous this year.

Look delicious! gloria
What a dream dessert this is Roz! All three of my favorites in one bite. What a treat indeed! I’ll try this soon enough ’cause the peaches are about to ripen here!
You have a lovely and fun blog! A sheer joy to look at! Cheers!!!
Hi Roz, So many of my favorite recipes are simple… with just a few ingredients. That lets the flavors stand out. I’ll have to drive down to Portland for the cookies. I know a great little Italian market where I can buy them. The peaches will be on a menu soon.
This is just the kind of dessert that “floats my boat.” It doesn’t have to be complicated to be delicious.
Very tasty, Roz. Be careful where you do this of course, but you can light one of the wrappers and it will “fly” up. 🙂
Hi Roz, this post is absolutely wonderful. The photos are gorgeous and everything sounds so delicious.
Thanks for following me and for the invite.

Your description is as good as the photo. Together, this is enchanting.
Fantastic dessert! Looks amazing!
I feel that a trip to the Okanagan would soothe my soul this summer. I miss these fruits. They were much more available in Calgary than Swift Current.
Wow! Those look amazing! Thanks for sharing! 😀
They just sound amazing! Great recipe.Beautiful space and gorgeous shots! Thanks for sharing:)
Hope to see you on my blog:)
Those look amazing, Roz!
