Neither. "Bill is making a cake for Karin and me." One trick you can use to quickly figure this out is to remove "...Karin and..." so that the sentence reads, "Bill is making a cake for me." In your sentences, this would work out to "Bill is making a cake for I" and "Bill is making a cake for myself." The latter is using a reflexive pronoun to refer to the subject, which is Bill. This doesn't work because you are not Bill.
