    Favorite cake?

    Making a birthday cake for my mom tomorrow, but don't know what kind of cake to make! Cream cheese frosting is a must, beyond that though I'm open to anything.

    Do you have a favorite cake? Can you back it with a recipe?

    The napoleon cake would be a bit out of my skill level anyway I think lol. And don't worry, carrot cake isn't on the radar.

    My wife is making a milk chocolate cake tonight with cream cheese frosting.................

    My favorite cake is pineapple upside down cake.

    YUM!

    BTW, the mixer she is using is over 45 years old - she won't part with it.

    If you need cream cheese frosting on it I'd stick with red velvet, make a nice strawberry purée to go with it. When you plate it put a pool of purée in the bottom of each plate & top with a slice of the cake, simple but amazing.

    I second the red velvel recipe, it's the best match for cream cheese icing, closely followed by carrot cake. Here's the red velvet recipe that I follow, I just use a different icing mix; it's basically a glorified buttermilk chocolate cake, but it's delicious Red Velvet Cake Recipe - Allrecipes.com

    The strawberry puree is great idea, however, I'd go a touch further and make a coulis so you don't have to deal with the strawberry seeds and the lemon juice will give the strawberry flavor a bit more kick.
