Avoid this recipe at all costs! The peaches were undercooked and the chocolate ganache was burnt. I had to throw the whole thing away.

This recipe was a waste of time and ingredients. The peaches were mushy and the chocolate ganache was grainy. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

These baked peaches were a disappointment. The peaches were bland and the chocolate ganache was too sweet. I would not recommend this recipe.

The chocolate ganache was too thick and didn't spread evenly over the peaches. I think I would use a thinner ganache next time.

The peaches were not ripe enough, so they were a bit hard. I think I would wait until the peaches are perfectly ripe before making this recipe again.

These baked peaches were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the chocolate ganache next time.

The peaches were a bit too tart for my taste, but the chocolate ganache was delicious. I think I would prefer to use a sweeter variety of peach next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the peaches turned out perfectly. They were soft and juicy, and the chocolate ganache was rich and decadent. I served them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and it was a perfect dessert.
