LEMON YOGURT CAKE This is a recipe I obtained from an Estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Garrett Estate in Fort Worth, Texas in 1994.

6 eggs separated
2 cups granulated sugar
juice and zest of 5 medium lemons

Directions:
1. Oil a spring form pan and dust with flour then preheat oven to 375.
2. Sift flour and baking powder together and set aside.
3. Place yolks and sugar in a mixer and beat until pale yellow about 7 minutes.
4. Add lemon juice, zest and 1 cup of the yogurt then beat until smooth.
5. Add flour mixture one cup at a time and beat slowly until smooth.
6. In a separate bowl beat whites to soft peaks.
7. Fold batter and almonds into eggs whites and pour into prepared pan.
8. Bake until golden brown about 1 hour and 20 minutes.
