• Beat eggs and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl. Add oil, lemon juice, and lemon zest; mix until well combined. Gradually beat in flour until it has been incorporated. Add Lievito and mix well. Pour batter evenly into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 28 to 30 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes. Run a knife down the sides of the pan to assist in releasing the cake from the pan. Place in the freezer for 20 minutes. Remove from the freezer and invert cake onto a serving platter.

LEMON COFFEE CAKE

Steps:

• To make homemade lemon curd, in a saucepan melt the butter. Remove from the heat, add sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest, and whisk to combine. Add eggs and whisk well. Place over medium heat and cook for 5-6 minutes until all sugar dissolves and the mixture is thick enough to hold the marks from a whisk. Cool completely.
• Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line 8 x 8 x 2-inch square baking pan (or 9 x 9-inch pan) with parchment paper leaving an overhang on the sides, spray with non-stick spray and set aside.
• First, make the crumb topping. In a bowl stir together flour, sugar, brown sugar, and salt. Then add melted butter and stir with a fork until pea-size crumbs form. Set in the fridge until ready to use.
• To make the cake beat softened butter for a minute, then add sugar and beat until creamy. Add lemon zest, vanilla, and eggs and mix to combine.
• Add sour cream and mix well, then mix in flour, baking powder, and salt. Spread half of the batter in the prepared pan.
• Spread 1 cup of lemon curd over the batter but don't go all the way to the edges (or it will burn during baking).
• Spoon the remaining batter on top.
• Beat cream cheese, vanilla, sugar, and egg until smooth. Spread cream cheese mixture over the batter.
• Sprinkle with a crumb topping and bake for about 45-55 minutes or until the center has set. If it browns too much tent the top with aluminum foil.
• Cool for 30 minutes in the pan, then pull the paper and lift the cake and transfer to a rack to cool completely.
• Dust with powdered sugar before serving if desired.

Steps:

• Streusel: Mix together flour, brown sugar, and salt. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut butter into the flour mixture until small to medium clumps form. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use, up to 3 days.
• Cake: In a large skillet of simmering water, cook lemon slices 1 minute. Drain and repeat. Arrange lemon slices in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch angel-food-cake pan. Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together butter, granulated sugar, and lemon zest on medium speed in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, then vanilla. Reduce speed to low. Beat in flour mixture in three additions, alternating with sour cream, beginning and ending with flour mixture and beating until combined after each addition.
• Spoon half of batter evenly into pan. Arrange half of lemon slices in a single layer over batter. Spread remaining batter evenly over top. Cover with remaining lemon slices in a single layer. Sprinkle chilled streusel evenly over batter.
• Bake until cake is golden brown and a tester inserted in center comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack set over a baking sheet; let cool in pan 15 minutes. Run a knife around edges of pan and remove outer ring. Let cool on rack 15 minutes more. Run a knife around center tube. Slide two wide spatulas between bottom of cake and pan, and lift cake to remove from center tube. Let cool completely on rack.
• Glaze: Just before serving, stir together confectioners' sugar and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Drizzle over cooled cake, letting excess drip down sides. Let glaze set before slicing, about 5 minutes.
