Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup whole milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Whipped cream or powdered sugar for serving
Instructions:

- Stir in milk and vanilla.
- Gradually add dry mixture to wet ingredients until just combined.
- Grease the Twinkie pan and spoon batter into each cavity, filling about halfway.
