  1. Mix the peaches, sugar, lemon juice, half of the vanilla bean and vanilla extract in a medium bowl until well combined. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Strain the juice mixture into a small bowl and set aside.
  2. The cream should be whipped in the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk on medium speed to thicken. At medium speed, gradually add the powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. At low speed, add the mascarpone until it is hard to stir.
  3. Divide the cookies, mascarpone and peach slices between 6 glasses. You can layer all the ingredients as desired. Top with the reserved peach syrup. If you want, you can add some mint and crushed cookies on top.
