Add the egg yolks, one at a time, beating well with electric mixer after each addition. Slowly add orange juice, liqueur and rind and beat well with mixer at medium-high speed after each addition. Continuing with electric mixer, gradually beat flour mixture and yogurt into the butter mixture alternating between each until well blended. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with electric mixer at high speed until stiff. Fold into batter. Pour the batter into prepared baking pan and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until cake is golden and springs back when pressed. Remove pan from oven and place on a wire rack to cool for a few minutes in pan, then turn out cake onto rack to cool. Dust with confectioners sugar when completely cool.
