INGREDIENTS

FOR SHORTCAKES
1/3 c Plus 1 tablespoon heavy
1 tb Granulated sugar
1 ts Baking Powder
1 Firm-ripe large peach
FOR FILLING
1 ts Granulated sugar
2 ts Fresh Lemon Juice
FOR WHIPPED CREAM
1/4 ts Cinnamon
1 tb Finely chopped fresh mint
1/2 c All-purpose flour
2 tb Brown Sugar ; firmly packed
1/4 c Well-chilled heavy cream
1/4 ts Vanilla

INSTRUCTIONS

Make filling: In a small saucepan of boiling water blanch peach 1 minute and drain. Peel and pit peach and slice thin. In a small bowl toss peach slices with sugar, mint, and lemon juice. Make shortcakes: Preheat oven to 425F. In a small bowl whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and a pinch salt. Add cream and stir with a fork until mixture just forms a dough. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and with floured hands pat into a 6- by 3-inch rectangle. With a sharp knife trim edges and halve dough crosswise to form two 3-inch squares. Arrange dough squares 2 inches apart on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake in middle of oven until golden, 12 to 15 minutes. (Squares will spread more than they will rise.) Transfer shortcakes to a rack and cool 10 minutes. Make whipped cream: In a small bowl with an egg beater or electric mixer beat cream with sugar until it just holds soft peaks and beat in vanilla. Split shortcakes with a serrated knife and put a bottom half on each of 2 plates. Top with peaches and any liquid, whipped cream, and shortcake tops. Serves 2.
