Lemon Polenta Cake
This cake is a sort of Anglo-Italian amalgam. It is a good marriage: I love Italian cooking in all respects save one - I find their cakes both too dry and too sweet.

But there is more to it than that. By some alchemical process, the lemon highlights the eggy butteriness of the cake, making it rich and sharp at the same time. If you were to try to imagine what lemon curd would taste like in cake form, this would be it.
