Fresh Peach Coupes

Peel twelve medium, sound, fresh ripe peaches, cut off the stones in quarter-inch slices, place in a bowl with two tablespoons powdered sugar, tablespoon rum and one tablespoon maraschino; carefully turn in seasoning, then let stand on ice until required.

Prepare a pint only of vanilla ice cream. Divide the peaches in six champagne glasses, fill with the vanilla cream, neatly smooth surface, then place a maraschino cherry on top of each and serve.
