Preparation
Step 1
Heat sugar in a dry heavy medium skillet over medium heat, stirring with a fork to heat sugar evenly, until it starts to melt. Stop stirring and cook, swirling skillet occasionally so sugar melts evenly, until it is dark amber.
Step 2
Remove from heat and immediately add water (mixture will bubble up and steam), then cook over medium heat, stirring, until any solids are dissolved and mixture is smooth, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Remove from heat and add butter, swirling skillet until incorporated.
Step 4
Serve peaches and ice cream with warm caramel sauce.
