"This is a modified version of a recipe I found in Good Houskeeping Cookbook. I make this every year when the Texas "freestone" peaches come in season. Very delicious!"

This does smell wonderful while cooking. I was disappointed in the color of the finished product, though. Mine has a slight greenish tinge. The jars don't look that appetizing. However, it is excellent spread over freshly toasted 7-grain bread. I don't know that I will make it again, but it is a nice change from the usual toast and jelly. And, besides...I finally have used up all of those peaches I had on hand. :)

This smelled SO good cooking! Mine didn't set very hard...seems to be a theme for me with all the peach recipes I've tried. But I have no doubt it will still be good poured over something!
