Increase heat and boil without stirring until sugar turns deep golden brown, swirling pan occasionally. Immediately pour caramel into 9-inch diameter baking dish with 1-1/2-inch high sides. Carefully turn dish to coat bottom and sides with caramel. Let stand until caramel hardens. Preheat oven to 375F. Blanch peaches in large pot of boiling water for 30 seconds.

Sprinkle cornstarch over peaches; toss gently. Arrange peaches atop caramel in dish. Sprinkle topping over. Bake until peaches bubble and topping browns, about 40 minutes. Cool until just slightly warm. Spoon into bowls. Top with ice cream and serve. Bon Appetit, September, 1990. From Gemini's MASSIVE MealMaster collection at www.synapse.com/~gemini
