3/4 cup sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 bananas, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 pint plus 1/2 cup vanilla ice cream
1/4 cup shaved semisweet or milk chocolate

Remove bananas from caramel, and place in serving dishes. Add 1/2 cup of vanilla ice cream to caramel sauce, and stir until smooth and creamy. Scoop remaining ice cream over bananas, pour caramel over ice cream, and sprinkle with chocolate shavings.
