Tried this recipe today and immediatelly added it to my favourites! WOW! Hands down the best cake I have ever tried. I followed all of the suggestions: measured flour after sifting, beat the egg whites and folded them in at the end (didn't use the yolks), I used unsalted butter but added 1/8tsp salt to the flour mixture and used unsweetened frozen strawberries (I'd picked them myself this summer), also used 1 cup of sugar instead of 2 which was perfect since I used a buttercream icing to decorate. I made one 9x13 pan since I needed a sheet cake and baked for 45 minutes. It didn't rise much which was perfect since I didn't need to level it for decorating. I ran out of vanilla extract so I used 1/2 tsp vanilla and 1/2 tsp almond extract and I think that it just added to the flavour! It was a total hit and everyone asked for the recipe! Thanks for posting!

This is the easiest dessert I have ever made. It turned out perfect and the presentation was wonderful. Everyone wanted the recipe! I used green food coloring instead of yellow to make it look lime-y instead of lemon-y. I was a bit sweeter than what I thought but I really enjoyed it!
