Peaches in Caramel Over Vanilla Ice Cream

• 4 large ripe peaches
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 1 pint vanilla ice cream

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).
9. Cook mixture, stirring frequently, until caramel is dissolved and peaches are tender, about 5 minutes.
