Instructions

In a medium-sized bowl, combine diced peaches, 3 tablespoons of sugar, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Let them sit for 20-30 minutes to release their juices.
Transfer half of the peaches and their juices to a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until softened and thickened. Remove from heat and cool.
Lightly pulse the cooked peaches in a blender or food processor until mostly smooth with a bit of texture. Set aside to cool completely.
Keep the remaining fresh peaches refrigerated for later use.

Notes

For a creamier texture, ensure the heavy cream is cold before using.
Optional bourbon adds a unique flavor but can be omitted for a non-alcoholic version.
Serve alongside fresh fruits or drizzled with chocolate sauce for added taste.
