    This cake is delightful with its lemony flavor and the added crunch of
    poppy seeds.

    3 cups cake flour
    1- 1/2 tsp. baking powder
    1/4 cup poppy seeds

    Combine all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Blend with a wire
    whisk. Store the mix in an airtight container.

    Lemon Poppy-Seed Cake
    Serves 8
    3/4 cup butter
    6 eggs
    1/3 cup milk
    1 tsp. vanilla extract
    1 tsp. lemon extract (not lemon juice)
    Zest of 1 lemon
    1 pkg. Lemon Poppy-Seed Cake Mix
    Glaze:
    1/2 cup sugar
    1/2 cup lemon juice

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 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.
