1. Cream the butter, sugar and vanilla extract together in a medium bowl until light and fluffy. 2. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. 3. Sift the cream of wheat with the baking powder and baking soda two times, then fold into the butter mix alternately with the yogurt. 4. Grease a 8x12 inch pan and fold the batter into it evenly. 5. Arrange the almonds along the top so that each half will be in the center of a piece when it's cut, you should have about 4 almonds across and 7 almonds down. 6. Bake in preheated oven at 350 degrees about 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. 7. Meanwhile, make the syrup by dissolving the sugar into the water in a small heavy saucepan over high heat until it begins to boil. 8. Add the lemon juice. 9. Turn the heat down to med-high, and boil rapidly about 10 minutes, then cool by standing the pan in a larger pan of cold water. 10. When the cake is cooled, cut as desired. 11. We usually make diamond shapes or squares, and serve by spooning the syrup over the cake. 12. If desired, thick whipped cream can be served over top instead, or a bit of honey syrup. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
