This Mark’s Quick & Dirty Peach Cobbler is the ultimate lazy-day dessert. It skips the fuss of making a traditional crust from scratch, using a box of yellow cake mix, chopped pecans, and sugar to create a crunchy, cookie-like topping. Fresh sliced peaches bake down into a warm, juicy filling that soaks up the buttery crumbs. The result is a harmonious blend of sweet fruit and nutty, caramelized crunch. Perfect for potlucks, summer evenings, or whenever you crave a slice of comfort food without spending hours in the kitchen. Serve it warm for the best texture, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream to balance the heat.
