Method
- Prepare the strawberry mousse by blending strawberries into a smooth puree, mixing with sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan, and cooking over medium heat until thick. Cool completely.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease and flour a round cake pan. Beat eggs, butter, and sugar until fluffy. Add yogurt and blend in. Sift in flour, chocolate powder, and baking powder, folding in gently. Mix in milk and cocoa liqueur until smooth.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 30-35 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
- For the chocolate glaze, heat cream until simmering and pour over chopped chocolate, stirring until smooth. Add brandy and cool slightly.
- Once the cake is cooled, spread the strawberry mousse evenly over it and pour the chocolate glaze over the mousse, allowing it to flow outwards and cover completely.
- Let the cake set for at least an hour before serving.

Notes
Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother batter. Don't overmix the cake batter after adding flour to maintain lightness. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, covered loosely. For a creative twist, substitute with other fruits or lemon curd for a bright contrast.
