Peach Cobbler Pound Cake is a perfect combination of a sweet summer Peach Cobbler and a rich buttery Pound Cake. This is a delicious combination of morning coffee, afternoon tea, and dessert ice cream.
Every August, Georgia celebrates the month of august. Georgia is known for being “The Peach State”, and August is National Peach Month. Special cocktails, cobblers, and souvenirs are created by local bars, restaurants, and shops. The real peach lovers? They work harder.
Peach County residents hold an annual Peach Festival, where parades, pageants and parties are all dedicated the beautiful stone fruit. Rich Bennett, along with his volunteers, create “The World’s Largest Peach Cobbler” on the first Saturday of the festival. This cobbler contains 75 gallons fresh Georgia Peaches, 150 lbs of self-rising flour and 150 lbs of sugar. It also includes 32 gallons milk, 90 lb butter, and 150 lb of sugar. What did you get? It was a huge success.
