The talk of a tomato soup cake intrigued me, I love spice cake and trying more unusual ingredients makes it all the more appealing. I have not tried this recipe yet, and some of the comments on the allrecipes.com website mentioned lowering the sodium in it, so I'm including some of their revisions.

Ingredients

  • 1-10.75 oz can condensed tomato soup
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 - egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups self-rising flour
  • 1 cup raisins

How To Make tomato soup cake

  • Step 1
    Combine the tomato soup and the soda in a bowl, and let it stand.
  • Step 2
    Cream sugar, egg, butter, salt, cinnamon, and cloves. Mix in tomato soup and soda mixture, and then flour. Stir in the raisins, and pour the batter in a greased baking dish.
  • Step 3
    Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 1 hour, or until done. Cool the cake, and top with cream cheese icing.
  • Step 4
    Comments from website: I followed the recipe with four changes: I omitted the salt, I used all-purpose flour and added 1 tsp baking powder, I omitted the raisins (we're out), and I added maybe 3/4 or 1 tsp of lemon extract. I used a silicone bundt pan sprayed with Pam, and, for whatever reason, it took 1 hour and 20 minutes to bake. It was awesome! I might add a little more baking powder next time but maybe not. It wasn't dense, it just didn't rise a whole lot. My husband HATES tomato soup, and he couldn't guess what was in the cake. Success! Oh, and I iced it with 'cream cheese' icing (8 oz soft neufchatel cheese, 2 TBS soft butter, maybe 1½ cups icing sugar, 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tsp lemon extract, maybe 1 or 2 TBS milk). Fabulous! Thanks for sharing, Debbie!
