Notes

TIPS
~The dough can be really sticky so make sure it's partially frozen. You may need to pop it back into the freezer if it starts to warm up and get stick while handling.
~Double the diced peaches if you like lots of peaches! I'll do that next time!
~There was a lot of peach cream mixture and crisp mixture left over. You could certainly get away with halving the recipe for those two.
~Change it up!! Use a different fruits! Blueberries would be nice!
~ Don't overstuff!!
