Sbrisolona cake is typical of the area around Milan, in Lombardy, Italy. My grandmother taught me this simple but tasty cake recipe which generates a biscuity dessert with a pleasantly crumbly top! Baking pan size is up to you depending on how thick you'd like it to come out.

1 cup white sugar
1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
1 lemon, zested
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise and scraped

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a baking pan.
Combine almonds, cornmeal, sugar, flour, lemon zest, vanilla, and salt in a bowl. Mix well using a fork.
Pile flour mixture onto a flat work surface, forming a mound. Make a large well in the center; add butter, lard, and egg yolks. Knead vigorously until mixture is combined but crumbly. Spread evenly in the prepared baking pan.
