Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cup white sugar
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 large peaches firm yet ripe
- one batch raspberry sauce
- 4 ervings vanilla ice cream
Instructions
- Combine the sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir while the mixture is warming up to dissolve the sugar into the water, and keep stirring until you bring the mixture to a boil.
- Cover and let the mixture boil for 5 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and stir in the extract.
- Cut the peaches in half and remove the pits.
- Bring the syrup to a rolling boil and add the peach halves. Poach the peaches for 4-5 minutes or until soft enough to be pierced with a fork or knife tip.
- Remove from the syrup using a slotted spoon and place on a plate. Remove the syrup from the heat and cool as well.
- Cool until you can safely handle the peaches, then peel.
- Place the cooled syrup and peaches together in a container and store in the refrigerator overnight if possible. If not, store in the syrup for as long as you can.
- Prepare the raspberry sauce.
- To serve, for each serving place a large scoop of ice cream in a sherbet glass. Place two peach halves on top, then drizzle with raspberry sauce.
Notes
- You can leave the peaches in the fridge in the syrup for 2-3 days and make the raspberry sauce 2-3 days ahead of time. This is a great make ahead dessert!
