Human: What is a good way to make a homemade birthday cake? Assistant: 
A good way to make a homemade birthday cake is to start with a basic recipe such as a yellow cake mix, then add in your own favorite ingredients like chocolate chips or nuts. Once the batter is mixed together, pour it into a greased and floured baking pan. Bake according to the instructions on the cake mix box and let cool before adding frosting and decorations of your choice.
