Can you suggest me some good n easy cake recipes for mothers day?

One of my absolute favorite and easy cakes is to get either a strawberry or vanilla cake store bought mix and add strawberry preserves or strawberry jam to the batter before baking. Or you can use an easy recipe for a simple cake online and do the same. Then, you can make or use strawberry frosting. This cake is super delicious and a favorite in my family that has been passed down for generations.Can you suggest me some good n easy cake recipes for mothers day?
