Cherry Vanilla Crisp is a thick, dense, and juicy berry filling covered in a thin layer of crunchy topping. It's perfect as a fruit dessert and also a wonderful accompaniment to a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The bottom berry layer is made up of cherries mixed with sugar, a little flour (for thickness), vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Add a couple of spoons of dark rum, and the cherry flavor becomes even more spicy and unique. The top layer of crisp is a crunchy mixture of flour, sugar, flaked almonds, oats, and butter. To fully enjoy the rich flavors of this dessert, serve it warm.
