Description
This French-style dessert is a great choice to enjoy in summer when strawberries are fresh and in season. A delicate vanilla sponge cake is layered with a rich and tart mascarpone cream and fresh strawberries. A brushing of strawberry syrup keeps the cake moist and adds a little extra bit of flavor. This cake is served cold, making it a great choice for summer dessert.

Directions
- First, prepare the syrup: mix sugar and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Let cool. Add the strawberry (or grenadine) syrup.
- When you start preparing the sponge cake, preheat oven to 400/425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place the eggs and sugar in a medium-sized bowl over a double boiler. Keep the water just to a simmer, do not boil. Using an electric whisk, beat the eggs and sugar mixture on medium speed for 5 to 10 minutes. The mixture should double in volume, be pale yellow, and reach the ribbon stage (this means that when you lift the whisk ove the mixture, the batter should fall slowly forming a ribbon that will briefly hold its shape).

I followed the recipe but I substitute heavy cream with yogurt and mil. I did it twice but every time the sponge cake either get burned and it’s tough at the bottom! I have to threw out the first sponge cake and re do it again, but still the top was butprned and nit spongy! What did I do wrong? Can someone help me?
I love the taste but I need it to make perfect.
