    Lemon Poppy Seed Cake
    Serves 8

    3/4 cup butter
    6 eggs
    1/3 cup milk
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1 teaspoon lemon extract, not lemon juice
    zest of 1 lemon
    1 jar Lemon Poppy Seed Cake Mix

    Glaze:
    1/2 cup sugar
    1/2 cup lemon juice

    Preheat oven to 350F. Butter an 8 to 9 cup Bundt pan. In the large bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Add the milk, extracts and lemon zest. The mixture will look curdled. Add the Cake Mix, and continue to beat on medium speed for 3 to 4 minutes until mixture is smooth. Pour the batter into greased pan and bake for 45 to 55 minutes.

    Glaze: Combine sugar and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat, and bring to boil for 3 minutes. When cake is removed from oven, poke cake all over with a wooden skewer and brush glaze over cake. Let the cake stand for 1 hour and remove from pan to cool on a wire rack. Wrap the cake in plastic wrap.
