Try this next time.
Soak 2 lbs of dark sweet cherries in Woodford Reserve bourbon (16 oz) for 1 month. Add all cherries and about 8 oz of the bourbon-cherry extract you just created to your secondary. With the chocolate and vanilla already in the beer, it is amazing.
Its like a meal in a bottle. You get the bourbon up front like a before dinner cocktail. A nice roasted sweet beer and the chocolate cherry hits you at the end like a nice dessert.
I also made mine a sweet stout. I still have about 4 oz of the cherry bourbon left over and I'm going to add it at bottling to a foreign extra sweet stout.
