Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups cake flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup white sugar
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 6 egg yolks
- ¾ cup water

Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and 1/2 cup sugar. Add oil, egg yolks, water and lemon rind. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth.
Step 3
In a small bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar until peaks form. Gradually add 3/4 cup sugar, and beat until very stiff and shiny peaks form. Fold 1/3 of the whites into the batter, then quickly fold in remaining whites until no streaks remain. Turn batter into ungreased 10-inch tube pan.
Step 4
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Invert cake and cool completely in pan. When cool, loosen edges and shake pan to remove cake.
Step 5
To Make Filling: Beat cream to stiff peaks. Fold in lemon filling. Chill until stiff.
