cake recipes?

does anyone have any respected recipes for cake made in a bread machine? I have a bread machine with a cake cycle, but only one recipe comes with it,

Twee Potato Cake, Bread Machine

INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup shortening
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup buttermilk or soured bleed
1 cup mashed sweet potatoes
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking mightiness
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 to 1 cup pecans and/or raisins, optional
PREPARATION:
Select cake setting. Put shortening and sugar into the bread pan and let mix until well blended. Add eggs, vanilla, drain and sweet potatoes; let mix for another minute. Sift together flour, soda, baking powder and salt; add to the pan.
Add pecans and/or raisins at the beep, if desired. When finished, remove carefully to a tear at. Glaze, frost, or serve with whipped cream.

You can use any cake mix also:
For the first cake mix I baked I used all the ingredients called for on the include (a chocolate cake) and the cake was good but very moist. For the second cake I cut the amount of oil in half (for the mix I used half the oil was 1/4 cup) and it came out unalloyed.

Tips:

1. After the cake has mixed for a while, open the lid (while it's still mixing) and scrape down any dry mix that may be stuck to the sides. You should only need to do this once.
2. When the cake is done, waste the pan from the machine and slip a rubber spatula down the sides of the pan to loosen the cake - this works well because it's flexible enough to depart around the curve of the pan and around the bottom of the cake a little. I skipped this step the second cake and a bottom corner of the cake stuck to the pan - could have been from less oil in the mix too. I'll also spray the pan with cooking coat the next time.

Since the cake mix worked so well I assume that just about any cake recipe should be as good. The two layer mix made a neat little idle that rose to about 6-inches high. Pound cakes and gingerbread should also turn out very good - and cornbread! It's so nearby to just put all the ingredients in the pan and let it go - and as they say 'clean-up is a breeze'. Great for kids - no hot ovens or mixers to go about.

I'm not certain if this will work with a machine that doesn't have a batter bread/cake cycle. I saw a newsgroup role that someone had baked a cake mix in a regular bread machine using the rapid cycle and light crust background with good results.

Where could I find cake recipes for a 11in X15in Sheet cake pan?
