Perhaps this Red Velvet Cake?

I can vouch for its deliciousness!

I made an almond cake with matcha buttercream (in cupcake form) out of the Baked cookbook...I'm sure it would be great in cake form! Involved but delish.

Cherry cheesecake:

or

or how about a black forest cake (I haven't tried this, though like the way the recipe looks, and I assume you can bake it in something other than the suggested bowl):
