- 4 slices thick-cut bacon, cooked and crumbled, reserving some for topping
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 small yellow onion, chopped (approximately ½ cup)
- 1 ounce bourbon
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup cola-flavored carbonated beverage
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- ¼ teaspoon chipotle chili pepper powder
- ½ cup light brown sugar, packed
- 2 cups fresh peaches, coarsely chopped (about 3 peaches)
- ½ cup chopped pecans, reserving some for topping
- 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt butter.
Add onion and cook for about 8 minutes, or until softened.
Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in bourbon, garlic powder, cola, cornstarch, chipotle chili pepper powder, and brown sugar.
Return to the heat; bring just to boil. Reduce the heat to low; simmer 10-15 minutes or until mixture reduces and thickens, stirring occasionally.
Stir in peaches, most of the bacon, and most of the pecans (reserving some bacon and pecans for topping). Simmer until heated through (3-5 minutes). Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Spread room temperature cream cheese evenly on the bottom and up the sides of an 8-inch pie plate.
Spoon the peach mixture on top of the cream cheese. Top with reserved crumbled bacon and chopped pecans.
Serve warm with assorted crackers or sliced French bread.
