    Source of Recipe


    'Weight Watchers Quick Italian Favorites'


    List of Ingredients


    • 4 medium firm ripe peaches, halved and pitted
    • 3 Tbsp amaretto
    • 1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted and divided
    • 2 Tbsp sugar
    • 8 oz 1/3 less fat cream chesse, softened
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
    • Cooking spray


    Instructions


    1. Prepare grill.
    2. Combine peaches and amaretto in a large bowl, tossing gently to coat. Let stand 15 minutes.
    3. While peaches stand, place 2 Tbsp almonds and sugar in a food processor; process 3 minutes or until a paste forms. Add cream cheese and vanilla; process until smooth.
    4. Remove peaches from bowl, reserving amaretto. Place peaches, cut sides down, on grill rack coated with cooking spray; brush peaches with reserved amaretto. Grill 5 to 6 minutes on each side or until tender, basting occasionally with amaretto. Place peach halves on dessert plates; spoon 2 Tbsp almond cream into center of each peach half, and sprinkle evenly with remaining 2 Tbsp almonds. Serve warm.

    Note: You may substitute 1/4 tsp almond extract plus 3 Tbsp water for the amaretto, if desired.
