Directions
Heat oven to 325℉ (160℃).
Grease an 8 1/2x4½ inchloaf pan and dust lightly with flour.
Sift together flour, baking powder, ginger and salt; set aside.
Sprinkle several tablespoons of granulated sugar on a cutting board.
Add lemon rind and chop as fine as possible. Transfer to a large mixer bowl and add remaining granulated sugar, butter and cream cheese.
Beat on high speed until light and fluffy, 3 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Add yogurt and mix well.
Stop the mixer and add dry ingredients. Mix just until combined.
Transfer batter to prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes.
Cool in pan for 5 minutes then invert onto a wire rack.
Make glaze by mixing confectioner's sugar and enough lemon juice.
Pour over warm cake.
