Ingredients

2 peaches (ripe)
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
12 cup sugar
2 tbsp heavy cream
12 pt vanilla ice cream

Method

1 Have ready a bowl of ice and cold water
2 Cut an X in blossom end of peaches
3 In a saucepan of boiling water blanch peaches 15 seconds and with a slotted spoon transfer to ice water to stop cooking
4 Peel peaches and cut each into 8 wedges
5 In a small bowl toss peaches with lemon juice
6 In an 8- to 9-inch heavy skillet cook sugar over moderately low heat, stirring slowly with a fork (to help sugar melt evenly), until melted and pale golden
7 Cook caramel, without stirring, swirling skillet, until deep golden, 5 to 6 minutes
8 Carefully add peaches and cream (mixture will vigorously steam and caramel will harden)
