My friend Laura gave me this recipe Personally, I like it with the pumpkin, but she likes it with the Tomato Soup Here is what she says about it. I have a theory that the tomato soup/pumpkin in this cake could be substituted with any mashed vegetable product and it would still taste amazing. Try something new and let me know how it works outs. Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups flour |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
3 teaspoons cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon ginger |

1 cup vegetable oil |
1 (16 ounce) box confectioners' sugar |

1. Combine all dry ingredients in large bowl (except for the sugar) and mix well. 2. -Combine sugar, eggs, vegetable oil and soup/pumpkin in separate bowl and mix well 3. -Combine the two bowls (dry ingredients and wet ingredients), mix well 4. -pour into greased pan (either two round or one large Bundt sized pan). 5. -bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean 6. FROSTING:. 7. -combine whipped cream cheese with vanilla and optional melted butter 8. -slowly pour in confectioner’s sugar (don’t pour it all in at once!). 9. -continue to add sugar to taste. 10. -refrigerate until you are ready to frost the cake. |
