I don't have a recipe for a cake, but for my piece of mine, I'd get a cake mix,
bake according to directions, hide the box in the trash, look as if you have been slaving over the stove all day. Complain you are so tired from baking,you don't feel like cooking dinner. Enjoy your meal out, wait for the compliments on your cake, smile a lot and tell everyone you will copy the recipe for them later. Make sure you are alone when you do this, you never want partners when you practice to deceive.
