Slice into ½-inch thick pieces, then roughly chop into evenly diced pieces.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter.
Add peaches and 1 cup white sugar, then sprinkle in 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon nutmeg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Add 1 shot cognac and let alcohol cook off.
Make a slurry by mixing 2 ½ tablespoon cornstarch with ½ cup water.
Stir slurry into peaches, simmer on medium-low until thickened.
Transfer to a bowl and chill in the fridge or freezer for 15–30 minutes.
Step 2: Make the Crumble
Combine 3 ¾ cups Golden Grahams, 2 tablespoon melted butter, ½ cup white cake flour, and ⅓ cup brown sugar in a bowl.
Mix with hands until evenly coated.
Spread on a baking sheet and bake until golden and crispy.
Place plastic wrap over baking sheet after cooling and lightly beat the mixture with a mallet, rolling pan, or anything hard. (Just enough to break it up). Set aside.
Step 3: Prepare the Graham Cracker Crust
Mix 3 cups graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup sugar, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, pinch salt, and 2 sticks melted butter.
Press mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a greased cake pan to form an even crust.
Step 4: Make the Cheesecake Filling
Beat 5 blocks cream cheese with 1 ¾ cups sugar, 2 tablespoon flour, and 1 ½ teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth.
Add eggs 2 at a time, mixing fully before adding the next. Add 2 egg yolks.
Mix in ⅓ cup whipping cream and 1 teaspoon lemon zest until fully combined.
Pour mixture into prepared graham cracker crust.
Step 5: Bake the Cheesecake
Preheat oven to 325°F (or as per your pan instructions).
Bake cheesecake for 2 hours, then cool completely.
Chill overnight for best consistency.
Step 6: Assemble the Peach Cobbler Cheesecake
Top chilled cheesecake with cobbler peaches.
Evenly sprinkle crumble over the top.
Chill for an additional 30 minutes before serving.
Pro Tip: Make sure the cheesecake is fully cooled before adding the topping to prevent it from sliding off.
