Raspberry Lemon Cake

• 9 tablespoons unsalted butter at room temperature
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 3 large eggs separated
• 2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 Tbsp baking powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 cup plain greek yogurt
• 1 heaped cup raspberries

• 2 sticks 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 5 cups confectioner’s sugar sifted
• juice of 1 and 1/2 lemons about 3-4 tablespoons
• optional 1 small drop yellow gel food coloring

1. Preheat oven to 350F Butter and flour 2 non-stick 9 inch
   cake pans (you can use 8 inch pans, as well, just increase the cooking time.) I
   like to put a round of parchment paper on the bottom of the pans just to insure
   a good release.
2. Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy,
   scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary.
3. Beat in the egg yolks, one at a time. In a separate bowl
   beat the egg whites until soft peaks form.
4. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking
   soda. Add to the butter mixture alternately with the yogurt and mix until well
   combined. Scrape down the bowl. Fold in the whipped egg whites, and when no
   white streaks remain, fold in the berries.
5. Spread the batter evenly between the two cake pans and even
   out the tops with an offset spatula.
6. Bake the cakes on the same oven shelf for about 25 minutes,
   or until the center springs back when touched and the edges are just starting
   to turn golden. Don’t over bake.
7. Let the cakes cool for 10 minutes before turning them out
   and cooling them completely on a rack.
8. To make the frosting cream the butter, sugar, (and the drop
   of food coloring, if using) adding enough lemon juice to make a creamy spreadable
   frosting. Beat until smooth and creamy. Add more sugar for a stiffer frosting,
   and more lemon juice if it’s too stiff.
9. Frost the cake when completely cool. Add a generous amount
   of frosting to the first layer, then top with second layer and finish frosting
   top and sides.
