    4 Eggs

    1 1/2 c Sugar
    1 c Plain yogurt (8 oz)

    Recipe



    For The Cake, coat a 3-quart bundt or tube pan with 1
    tablespoon of the butter and dust pan with 1 tablespoon of
    the flour. Separate the eggs and set aside. Grate 2
    teaspoons lemon zest and squeeze 1/3 cup lemon juice. Beat
    remaining butter and the sugar in a bowl until the mixture
    is light and fluffy.
    Beat in egg yolks, one at a time. Beat in lemon zest, lemon
    juice and yogurt. Sift remaining flour with baking powder,
    bakinG soda and salt. Turn mixer to low and beat in dry
    ingredients until just incorporated. Turn mixer to medium,
    beat for 2 minutes. With clean beaters, whip whites to
    firm peaks and fold into batter. Pour batter into prepared
    pan.

    COOKING: Adjust oven rack to middle position and preheat
    oven to 350F. Bake until a cake tester inserted in the
    center of the cake comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Cool
    cake in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire
    rack to cool completely. (Can wrap and store at room
    temperature overnight, or freeze for up to 1
    month.)ASSEMBLY: For The Glaze, sift confectioners' sugar
    into a medium bowl or large measuring cup. Squeze in 1
    tablespoon lemon juice and stir in yogurt until galze is
    smooth. With cake on a wire rack set over a pan to catch
    drippings, pour glaze over the cake, allowing it to drip
    down the sides. Let cake stand at room temperature until
    glaze sets, about 10 minutes. (Can cover and store at room
    temperature for up to 2 days.)Makes 12 servings
