Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch square or round baking pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1.5 teaspoons baking powder, and 0.5 teaspoons salt.
Cut in 0.5 cups of cold cubed butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 0.5 cups of milk, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Add this wet mixture to the flour mixture and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
In another bowl, beat 8 ounces of softened cream cheese and 0.5 cups of powdered sugar until smooth. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the cake batter.
Arrange 1.5 cups of peach slices evenly over the layer of cream cheese.
To make the streusel topping, combine 0.5 cups of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, 0.5 cups of flour, and 0.25 cups of melted butter in a bowl. Mix until crumbly.
Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the peaches.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the cake layer (not the cream cheese layer) comes out clean.
Let the coffee cake cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving.
