Steps:

• 1 Preheat an oven to 350€F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. Place the 1 3/4 cups flour, 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar and salt in a food processor and pulse to blend. Add the butter and process until the dough begins to form a ball, adding the ice water if necessary. 2 Press the dough evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking pan. Bake until the crust is lightly golden, about 20 minutes. Let cool for at least 30 minutes, then evenly spread the jam over the crust. 3 In a bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, the remaining 1/3 cup flour and the lemon zest. Place the eggs in a large bowl and slowly add the flour mixture, beating with an electric mixer until well blended, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the lemon juice and mix to combine. 4 Pour the lemon mixture carefully over the raspberry jam layer, making sure to keep layers separate. Bake until the lemon topping is just set, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool in the pan. Dust with confectioners' sugar and cut into squares with a serrated knife. Place in a covered container and keep cool until ready to serve. Makes 24 squares.

LEMON-RASPBERRY SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Line 2 baking sheets with nonstick baking mats or parchment paper; set aside. Whisk together both flours, cornstarch, and salt in a bowl.
• Put butter, sugars, lemon zest, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture in three batches, mixing well after each addition. Cover dough with plastic wrap; refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place cold dough between two pieces of parchment paper and roll out to 1/8 inch thick. Transfer dough on parchment to a baking sheet; freeze 10 minutes.
• Using a fluted 1 1/2-inch round cutter, cut out dough; transfer to prepared baking sheets. Reroll scraps, and cut out (you should have 40 rounds). Bake until pale golden, 10 to 11 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Let cool slightly on sheets on wire racks. Transfer cookies to racks to cool completely.
• Place jam in a small bowl and stir in remaining tablespoon lemon juice. Spread 1 teaspoon jam mixture on flat side of half of the cookies, and sandwich with the remaining cookies. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Unfilled cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days; filled ones are best eaten the day you assemble them.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grease and line the base of 2 x 20cm non-stick round sandwich tins with baking parchment. Beat 250ml of the yogurt with the oil and eggs. In a large bowl, mix the sugar, flour, polenta, xanthan gum and baking powder until well blended. Pour the yogurt into the flour mixture and stir well. Fold in half the raspberries, then divide the mixture equally between the tins. Level and bake for 25-30 mins until firm and cooked all the way through when an inserted skewer comes out clean. Cover with foil after 20 mins if the top is getting too brown. Cool in the tins.
• Whip the cream until just holding its shape, then stir in the remaining lemon yogurt, trying not to knock out any air. Use to sandwich cakes together, with the remaining raspberries scattered inside.
• Stir the icing sugar, lemon zest and juice together to make a runny icing. Drizzle over the cake and leave in a cool place to set before serving. Will keep in the fridge for 2 days, return to room temperature before serving.
