Stir in the cinnamon and equally divide batter between cake pans. Bake for 28-34 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then un-mold onto a cooling rack and allow to cool completely.

  GLAZED PEACHES: Heat butter in a skillet set over medium-high heat. Once melted, stir in both sugars and allow to dissolve. Toss in peach slices, cinnamon and nutmeg. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and cook until peaches are tender, 10-16 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.

  BROWN SUGAR CAKE CRUMBLES: Preheat oven to 350°F. Cut off the domed portion of each cake and crumble the tops into very small pieces. Measure out 3/4 cup crumbs and mix with brown sugar, cinnamon and melted butter. Spread out into a thin layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove and stir. Bake an additional 6-10 minutes until fragrant and deep golden brown. Remove and allow to cool completely.

  To assemble cake: Cut each cake into 2 even layers. Set one layer on a cake plate. Spread 1/4th of the cheesecake filling over top. Spoon 1/4 of the glazed peaches on top. Sprinkle on 1/4 of the brown sugar cake crumbles over the peaches. Repeat this process, adding the remaining 3 cake layers and topping them with cheesecake filling, peaches, and cake crumbles. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Will keep in the refrigerator up to 5 days.
