For the Cream Cheese Frosting:

For the Whipped Cream Topping:

Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
Make the Cake Batter:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Add Peaches:
Gently fold in the sliced peaches into the cake batter.
Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans and spread it out smoothly.
Bake the Cakes:
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Prepare Cream Cheese Frosting:
In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until well combined and smooth.
Mix in the vanilla extract.
Prepare Whipped Cream Topping:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until stiff peaks form.
Assemble the Cake:
Place one cake layer on a serving plate.
Spread a layer of cream cheese frosting on top of the first cake layer.
Place the second cake layer on top of the frosting.
Frost the entire cake with the remaining cream cheese frosting.
Add Whipped Cream and Serve:
Spread or pipe the whipped cream topping over the top of the cake.
Decorate with additional peach slices if desired.
Chill the cake for at least 1 hour before serving.
