Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350º. Coat a 10-inch Bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray.

2. Prepare the cake mix according to the package directions, using only 1/2 the amount of water called for. Don’t pay attention to what the package says for oil. You should use ½ cup of vegetable oil. Add the sour cream and poppy seeds; mix well and pour into the pan.

3. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

4. Let cool in pan 10 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely.

5. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add the confectioners' sugar and lemon juice; beat until creamy.

6. Frost the cake once cool, and sprinkle frosting with a little bit of lemon zest for garnish. Serve, or cover loosely and chill until ready to serve.
