    It's SO easy :) and why I love this site.

    You have a recipe feature under food. What you do is you enter all the ingredients of the recipe, name it, and then enter how many servings the recipe makes. MFP actually calculates the calories for you!

    Under you food tab there is a recipe tab that you can use to enter the cake recipe and choose how many servings there are per cake. Then you can enter one serving. Same with the pancakes. Very handy tool.
