Method
 

Cake Preparation
  1. Prepare Peach Puree: Peel and pit peaches, chop and cook in a saucepan over medium heat for 15-20 minutes until thickened. Cool completely.
  2. Preheat Oven: Set oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line cake pans with parchment paper.
  3. Make Cake Batter: Cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs, extracts, and peach puree; mix until combined.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add to wet mixture alternating with buttermilk.
  5. Bake: Divide batter into pans and bake for 25-30 minutes. Cool in pans for 10 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
  6. Make Cream Filling: Beat cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth. Whip heavy cream and fold into cream cheese mixture.
  7. Assemble Cake: Level cake layers and spread filling and fresh peaches between layers. Cover with remaining cream filling.
  8. Chill Before Serving: Refrigerate assembled cake for at least 2 hours before serving.

Notes

Allow the peach puree to cool completely to avoid affecting the batter's consistency. Ensure to chill the cake before serving for the best texture.
