Lemon Cake With Lemon Cream or Raspberry Sauce image

From A. Lindsay Light Cooking. Baking it as I write!! You can replace the extra-thick yogurt by yogurt cheese. Delicious moist cake with a nice lemon flavour - Made holes on both sides of cake to make sure all the lemon syrup went in - was worried it would be too sour - but not at all!! The sauce with the yogurt is great too! For all lemon lovers - got to try this!!
