Own creation with cherries

Beat the butter, sugar, and vanilla sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the eggs and cherry brandy, then add the 400g flour mixed with the salt and baking powder. Divide the batter and fold the melted chocolate into one portion. Add 100ml of cherry juice (from the jar), the remaining 100g of flour, and the cocoa to the other portion. Pour the dark batter into a buttered springform pan, then the cherries, and finally the light batter. Make a pattern with a fork and bake at 180°C for 50-60 minutes (test with a skewer). Once the cake has cooled, mix 200ml of juice (leftover from the jar) and 200g of icing sugar to make a glaze. Spread it on the cake and decorate as desired.
