Dual US/EU citizen travel to Cuba

Hi all,
I have been considering going to Cuba, and I was wondering how this will work given that both a German and an American passport (I live near ORD).

I know that Cuba & the USA are lax about traveling, especially now, but since I don't really qualify for one of "the" American reasons for going to Cuba, would it be better to use my German passport, meaning the trip would go like this?:

- Leave US on US Passport
- Land in Cuba, show DE passport
- Leave Cuba, show DE passport again
- Arrive in the US, show US passport again

If I did this, would I book the flight using my US passport info or the German one?

Has anyone done this (surely I'm not the only Dual citizen wanting to go to Cuba)?

Thanks!
