Indulge Your Sweet Tooth with Mini Cherry Crumbles

I am so excited to share with everyone one of my very favorite easy summer desserts---mini cherry crumbles! My goodness, are these ever delicious. Even though I love dark chocolate, I think fruit crumbles like this are my favorite sweet tooth fix; I could eat the streusel right out of the bowl! That may or may not have happened when I baked these guys the other day. Cherry season is in full swing right now, so stop by your local farmers market or produce stand to pick up some for this dessert. The streusel topping is quite simple, too: just oats, brown sugar, a little flour and some butter. Topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, these crumbles will be the hit of any summer party. I made my crumbles in individual eight-ounce dishes for perfect portion control. Who doesnt love getting their own mini dessert like this?! Its just so fun and cute. If you dont have any mini casserole dishes like this, though, you can just bake the crumble in an 8 square pan. Enjoy these, guys...we sure did!
