------------------------------------CAKE------------------------------------
3 c Cake flour
1 ts Baking soda
1/4 ts Salt
6 Eggs; separated
1 c Plain yogurt
2 c Sugar; divided
1 c Butter
2 ts Grated lemon peel
2 ts Lemon juice

-----------------------------------GLAZE-----------------------------------
3 oz Cream cheese
2 c Confectioners sugar
1 Lemon; juice and peel of

Sift dry ingredients; set aside. Beat egg whites, gradually add 1/2 cup
sugar, until stiff. Set aside. Beat butter, remaining 1-1/2 cup sugar, egg
yolks, lemon peel and juice until fluffy--10 minutes. Add flour and
alternate with yogurt; then fold in beaten egg whites. Pour into a greased
and floured 10" tube pan (I used a non-stick pan and didn't have to grease
or flour). Bake 50 - 60 minutes at 350~. Cool in pan 10 minutes, then
turn out on rack. Glaze: Mix and pour over cooled cake. I did not make the
glaze and the cake was wonderful - moist and delicious. Enjoy - we did!
