Directions

Sift dry ingredients; set aside.

Beat egg whites, gradually add ½ cup sugar, until stiff.

Set aside.

Beat butter, remaining 1½ 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 inch; tube pan (I used a non-stick pan and didn’t have to grease or flour).

Bake 50 to 60 minutes at 350℉ (180℃).

Cool in pan 10 minutes, then turn out on rack.

Glaze: Mix and pour over cooled cake.
