#### Prepare the Cream Topping:
1. **Make Pudding:** In a large bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and milk until thickened, about 2 minutes. Refrigerate for 5 minutes to set.
2. **Whip Cream:** In a separate bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
3. **Combine:** Gently fold the whipped cream into the set pudding until well combined.
#### Assemble the Cake:
1. **Spread Topping:** Spread the cream topping evenly over the peach layer on the cake.
2. **Chill:** Refrigerate the cake for at least 1 hour, or until ready to serve, to allow the flavors to meld and the cake to set.
### Serve:
1. **Slice and Serve:** Slice the cake into squares and serve chilled. Garnish with additional peach slices or a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired.
### Tips:
– **Fresh Peaches:** For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe peaches when they are in season. If using canned peaches, be sure to drain them well.
– **Chill Time:** Ensure adequate chilling time for the cake to allow the Jell-O to set and the flavors to meld.
