  3. Cream Butter and Sugar: Beat butter and sugar until pale and fluffy.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla.
  5. Alternate Wet and Dry: Gradually add dry ingredients and milk, beginning and ending with flour.
  6. Fold in Peaches: Gently fold in diced peaches.
  7. Layer Batter: Spoon half the batter into the pan.
  8. Make Cream Swirl: Beat cream cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and cardamom.
  9. Swirl Cream Cheese: Drop cream cheese mixture over batter and swirl gently.

  14. Glaze and Garnish: Drizzle glaze over cake, sprinkle with almonds, and garnish with peach slices.

Notes

For a lighter texture, sift the flour. Ensure butter and eggs are at room temperature for better emulsification. Don’t overmix the batter to avoid a tough cake.
