What sort of a filter/method can be applied to smoothen sharp peaks on a surface?

This is a surface I simulated via coding. The surf plot shows sharp peaks.

I have the data as a matrix Z(101,101).
However, ideally the surface should look smooth as shown in figure below. What sort of a filter can I apply?
The sharp peaks needs to be smoothen so that it can resemble the surface given below.

In general, if you want to smooth out peaks you want to get rid of the high frequency content, aka a low pass filter. The easiest lpf is a moving average filter. I think this should work for your implementation.
window = 9; % Increase to smooth more, decrease to smooth less
H = ones(window)./(window^2); % Create the window and divide so that it is an average and not just a sum
filteredZ = filter2(H,Z);
surf(filteredZ)
Check out the filter2 documentation to get a better idea on what it is doing. Hope this helps
