- Add in the Yogurt and beat until combined.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt; add to the butter mixture beating at low speed just until blended.
- Gently fold in the diced peaches and the blueberries.
- Please note if using frozen blueberries to make sure to drain off all the excess juice just to keep the dye from running in the cake, and flour them before folding them in.
- Pour into the prepared pan and put in the oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes.
- Cake is done when toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- If cake is done but not brown on top you can increase the heat to 350 and leave in for 5 more minutes.
- Cool in the pan for 15 minutes remove and cool completely on wire rack.
- For the glaze, Beat or mix the cream cheese and juice from the Orange until creamy.
- Mix in the powdered sugar and Orange zest, being careful not to add too much zest.
- Add 1 tablespoon of milk at a time to achieve desired consistency for drizzling the Cream Cheese Glaze onto the cake.
- If the glaze is too loose you can put it in the fridge to thicken it up, or add more powdered sugar.
