What You’ll Need
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup diced peaches (fresh or frozen)

Consider using fresh peaches for the best flavor, but if they’re out of season, frozen diced peaches work just as well. Just make sure to thaw and drain them to avoid extra moisture in the dough.
