Instructions: Press the raspberries through a sieve using a large spoon or rubber spatula. Combine with the sugar.

Halve and pit the peaches. Set them in a baking dish. Divide the cheese into 6 portions, roll each into a ball and roll in the cookie crumbs or almonds until well coated. Place a cheese ball into the pit section of each peach half, carefully arranging the peaches so they wont fall over.

Heat the broiler.

Place the dish 10 to 12 inches beneath the broiler until the peaches are just warmed and the crumbs are becoming crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Spoon a bit of raspberry sauce onto 6 dessert plates. Place the peaches in the sauce, then dress the peaches with the remaining sauce.

This recipe yields 6 servings.

Comments: Chevre is fresh goat cheese, drained to a soft, spreadable state, then sold loose in pots or rolled into logs. Fresh chevre should be milky, bright and delicate.
