Tell her to Google "war cake".  She'll find recipes for a raisin spice cake with 
no milk, eggs, or butter.

Also Google: recipes parve cakes.
For those who keep kosher, Parve is a "neutral" category of foods, neither 
meat nor dairy.  Because dairy-containing desserts cannot follow a meat 
meal, there are quite a few recipes for parve cakes.
