I've been playing about with this recipe. I chopped the cherries up and added them to the mix along with half tsp of vanilla essence. I also added a good slug of Brandy. You may need to adjust the cooking time slightly.

Enjoy I certainly did!

This looks a very tasty recipe idea. (With or without the brandy.)
