LEMON CRUNCH CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush an 8-by-2-inch square cake pan with butter. Line with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on all sides; brush parchment with butter and dust with flour, tapping out excess.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Stir together milk and vanilla in another bowl. Beat butter on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add 1 1/3 cups granulated sugar in a steady stream and beat, scraping down sides of bowl as needed, until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in finely grated lemon zest and juice.
• Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with milk mixture; beat until just combined.
• In a large bowl, whisk egg whites until soft peaks form. Fold half into batter, then fold in remainder. Transfer to prepared pan, smoothing top. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar, julienned lemon zest, and sanding sugar.
• Bake until a tester inserted in center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Let cool in pan on a wire rack 30 minutes. Using parchment, carefully transfer to rack; let cool completely. Slice with a serrated knife, dollop with whipped cream, and serve.

LEMON POUND CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 6-cup loaf pan and line it with parchment or waxed paper. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
• In a mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (or using a hand mixer), cream the butter. Add 1 cup of the sugar and mix. With the mixer running at low speed, add the eggs one at a time. Add the vanilla.
• Working in alternating batches, and mixing after each addition, add the dry ingredients and 1/4 cup of the lemon juice to the butter mixture. Mix until just smooth.
• Pour into the prepared pan and bake until raised in the center and a tester inserted into the center comes out dry and almost clean (a few crumbs are OK), 65 to 75 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the glaze: In a small bowl, stir together the remaining 1/3 cup sugar and the remaining 1/3 cup lemon juice until the sugar is dissolved.
• When the cake is done, let cool in the pan 15 minutes (it will still be warm). Run a knife around the sides of the pan. Set a wire rack on a sheet pan with sides (to catch the glaze) and turn the cake out onto the rack. Peel off the waxed paper.
• Using a turkey baster or pastry brush, spread glaze all over the top and sides of the cake and let soak in. Repeat until the entire glaze is used up, including any glaze that has dripped through onto the sheet pan. Let cool at room temperature or, wrapped in plastic wrap, in the refrigerator (Well wrapped, the cake will last up to a week). Serve at room temperature, in thin slices.
