Lemon Sugar-Almond Topping:
Stir together; set aside:
1/4 Cup Sugar
1 ½ tsp. Finely grated zest from 1 lemon (or ¼ tsp. lemon oil not flavoring)
½ Cup Sliced Almonds
Cake:
Wisk together; set aside:
2 ¼ Cups Flour
1 1/8 tsp. Baking Powder
1 1/8 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Salt
Beat together at a medium speed until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes):
10 Tbl. Butter (1 stick + 2 Tbl)
1 Cup + 2 Tbl. Sugar
1 Tbl. Finely grated zest (or ½ tsp. lemon oil not flavoring)
Add 4 eggs 1 at a time, beating for 20 seconds between each egg
Add and mix to combine, 4 tsp. Vanilla
Measure out 1 ¼ Cups Sour Cream (set aside)
Reduce speed to low and add the following to the butter mixture beating 5-10 seconds after each addition:
1/3 of flour mixture
½ of sour cream
Repeat using ½ of the remaining flour mixture and all of remaining sour cream.
Scrape bowl and add remaining flour. Mix at low speed until batter is thoroughly combined, about 10 seconds. Remove bowl from mixer and fold batter once or twice with rubber spatula to incorporate any remaining flour.
Reserve 1 ¼ cups batter and set aside.
Spoon batter into a 10-inch tube pan sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
Return empty bowl to mixer and beat together on medium speed for 1 minute:
8 oz. Cream cheese
5 Tbl. Sugar
4 tsp. Lemon juice
1 tsp. Vanilla
Mix in ¼ cup of the reserved batter
Make an indentation in the center of the dough staying 1 inch from the edges.
Spoon cheese filling mixture in the indentation again staying 1 inch from the edges.
Spread remaining cup of batter over filling and smooth top. With a knife, gently swirl filling into batter using figure-8 motion. Firmly tap pan on counter 2 or 3 times to dislodge any bubbles. Sprinkle lemon sugar-almond topping evenly over batter and gently press into batter to adhere.
Bake at 350° 45-50 minutes until top is golden brown and a long skewer comes out clean.
Remove pan from oven and firmly tap on counter 2 or 3 times (top of cake may sink slightly).
Cool on wire rack 1 hour. Gently invert onto rimmed baking sheet; remove tube pan, and invert cake sugar-side up on cake plate. Cool for 1 ½ hours. Store leftovers tightly wrapped in plastic wrap and in the refrigerator.
