Does anyone have a simple,(Americanized, if possible) version of a recipe for cranachan?

Just looked back at posts and found this request and I hope it is not too late for what you needed it for. This recipe is also known as Cream Crowdie. Sorry but I could not find an American version.

Ingredients

2 oz Pinhead Oatmeal
10 fluid oz. Double Cream
1-2oz. Castor Sugar
4 oz. Raspberries
Rum or Vanilla

Toast the oatmeal lightly in the oven or in a thick-bottomed pan over a gentle heat. Beat cream until its frothy but not stiff,sweeten to taste.
Mix in the oatmeal and flavour with the rum or vanilla.
Wash and sieve the raspberries and stir into the cream mixture.
Put into bowl and if you want to decorate with more raspberries.
I think it is better if put to chill for a little while.
