Ruthie'S Tomato Soup Cake
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/3 cups sugar
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground allspice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 (10 3/4-ounce) can tomato soup, preferably Campbell's
- 1/2 cup shortening (I use the organic stuff; Ruthie probably used Crisco; and yes, you can use butter)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 cup raisins
- Cream cheese frosting
- Preheat the oven to 350u0b0 F. Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans, shaking out the excess flour.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Add the soup shortening, eggs, and water. Beat together into a smooth batter. Add raisins. Pour into the cake pans.
- Bake for 30 to 45 minutes. The tines of a fork pierced into the center should come out clean. Let cool completely before frosting.
