I’m a changed woman.
I had my first smear of Kerrygold Irish butter. All butters are not created equal. Amen.
Remember how Mr. Dessert For Two boldly declared he likes fruit desserts now? These buttery peach pie bars are the thing that tipped the scales. He took one bite of the soft, cinnamon-flecked crust and whiskey peach jammy filling, and moaned. From my experiments, I've deduced that the moans signify that his love for fruit desserts is equal to his love for chocolate desserts. That’s the power of pie, my friends.
I used almost an entire stick of Kerrygold butter in this pie bars. While I made the dough, I let 3 peaches soak in way too much whiskey. I pressed ¾ of the dough into the pan, poured my drunken peaches over top, and then crumbled on the remaining dough. Forty minutes later, the peaches melt into a jam-like consistency. They're nothing short of spectacular.
Use the good whiskey for these bars; you won't regret it. I used rye whiskey.
You will love these yummy peach pie bars!

I have peaches taking over my kitchen right now and a peach dessert on the brain for later too. Definitely that time of year! Kerrygold is some good stuff, had it in Ireland last year and was totally hooked!

I had to laugh at point six of in the instructions. Really? :) Waiting never happens around here, even if I have to take pictures. I just have to try it right away! These look incredible and I'm going to make them tomorrow or on Wednesday. I rarely make anything without healthifying it, but this? This will definitely be made as written. It's too good looking to mess around with!

I haven't baked with peaches ever, yet I adore peach pie and peaches in general. I really want to try making these this summer - they sound and look fabulous!
