Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F and grease a 9x13" pan with cooking spray or butter.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, prepare cake batter by combining butter and sugar. Mix on medium-high speed until creamy.

Add eggs, one at a time, mixing after each addition until just combined, followed by vanilla extract.

Add condensed tomato soup and mix just until incorporated.

In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and allspice.

With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing just until evenly combined.

Pour batter into prepared baking pan and smooth out the top. Bake for 28-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or the center springs back when pressed gently with your finger. Allow cake to cool completely before frosting.

Add powdered sugar gradually, mixing until incorporated.

Add vanilla extract and milk or whipping cream and mix until smooth.
