Preparation

  2. In a large bowl, mix the softened butter and sugar until creamy.
  3. Add the eggs, honey, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.

  5. Gently stir in the diced peaches.
  6. Spoon the batter into the cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Frosting

  2. Once the cupcakes are cool, add the cheesecake mixture on top.
Garnishing
  1. Top with peach slices, a drizzle of honey, and a sprinkle of crushed graham crackers.

Notes

Choose ripe, juicy peaches for the best flavor. You can substitute frozen peaches if fresh ones aren't available. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days or freeze for up to three months.
