MADZOONOV GARGANTAG (ARMENIAN YOGHURT CAKE)
Yoghurt cakes are always so moist. I love the sound of the lemon flavourings in this one. The recipe specifies natural yoghurt, but when I make it I plan to use creamy Greek yoghurt. I'm posting this recipe, which I found in 'The Best of Lebanese and Middle Eastern Cooking' for the 2005 Zaar World Tour.
