"These are pretty little bars with a great big taste! Found them on theviewfromgreatisland.com, a food blog. You can substitute other liquor for the whiskey. Try amaretto or brandy! You can also substitute frozen peaches for the fresh - and if you're like me and have difficulty finding peaches of any sort, you can also use peach preserves."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350F
Step 2
Mix the whiskey with the cornstarch in a small glass, and pour over the sliced peaches. Stir to coat and let sit while you make the crust.
Step 3
Cream the butter and sugar together. Add the salt and vanilla. Mix in the flour just until combined, the mixture will be crumbly.
Step 4
Butter or line a 9×9 or 8×8 square baking pan with parchment paper. Leave the ends of the paper overhanging the edges so you can use it as a ‘sling’ to make it easier to remove the bars for cleaner cutting later.
Step 5
Press 2/3 of the dough evenly on the bottom of the pan. Spread out the peaches evenly over the bottom crust.
Step 6
Using your fingertips, crumble the remaining dough over the top. The peaches will show through.
Step 7
Bake for about 45 minutes until the crust is beginning to turn golden. Cool before cutting or glazing.
To make the glaze:
Step 8
Stir together the confectioner’s sugar and enough whiskey to make a drizzle-able consistency. Using a small spoon, drizzle the glaze over the cooled squares.
