Peach Cobbler Delight

Ok. I made this ONCE. But it was SOOO good, I'm keeping track of the recipe in case I ever decide to make it again. It's kind of intense - lots of steps and sort of time consuming but perhaps someday, when I have all the time in the world and I've run out of laundry and dishes and books to read... A girl can dream, right?

Original recipe is from a Martha Stewart show, watched many years ago and the recipe scribbled down on a scrap of paper.
