    What an absolutely divine dessert!

    List of Ingredients




    Peach Beehive Dessert

    8 extra large perfect peaches, unpeeled
    2 pie crusts
    hard Sauce (recipe follows), or whipped cream

    Roll pie crust into an oblong shape and cut strips
    1 inch wide. Wash, dry peaches. THEY MUST BE PERFECT!
    Wrap the strips of the pie crust around starting for
    the bottom of the peach until the peach is entirely covered.
    (The skins are supposed to cook away while baking.) Pat
    and patch the crust as you go along so there are no holes
    Seal the edges. Place "beehives" on a cookie sheet and
    bake for 40 minutes at 400 degrees. Serve hot with hard
    sauce.
    To eat:
    Break the beehive in half, remove the stone ,and spoon a
    heaping tablespoon (or more, to taste) of sauce into the
    cavity. The peach skin has disappeared!

    Hard Sauce

    4 tablespoons sweet butter
    1 unbeaten egg
    2 cups powdered sugar
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    Nutmeg
    1 Tablespoon brandy

    Cream butter. Add egg and mix well. Gradually work in 2
    cups or more powdered sugar. the definite amount of sugar
    you will add will depend upon whether you like a tight or
    not-so tight hard sauce. Flavor with brandy.
    Pile sauce into peach cavity and sprinkle with nutmeg.
    Serves 8 lucky people.
