Ingredients

2 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup Butter Flavored Crisco Stick
4 large eggs
1 can 16 ounces solid-pack pumpkin
1/4 cup water
2 1/2 cups cake flour
1 Tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon baking powder
1 Tablespoon Pumpkin Pie Spice
1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup Golden Raisins

Glaze

1 cup confectioner's sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
2 Tablespoon Orange Juice
1/4 cup additional chopped walnuts as garnish

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°. Prepare a 10 inch (12 cup) bundt pan with non-stick baking spray, or grease and flour pan. Set aside.
In the bowl of your mixer, combine brown sugar and shortening. Beat at low speed until creamy and smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in pumpkin and water.
In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda and salt. Whisk until blended. Add to pumpkin mixture. Beat at LOW speed until blended. Beat an additional 2 minutes at medium speed.
Fold in 1/2 cup chopped walnuts and raisins.
Spoon into prepared bundt pan. Using a spatula spread cake batter as evenly as possible in bundt pan. Bake in preheated 350° oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes before removing from pan. Place cake fluted side up, on serving plate. Cool Completely.
For the glaze, combine confectioner's sugar, orange zest, and orange juice. Whisk until smooth. Spoon glaze over the top of cooled cake, letting excess glaze run down the sides of the cake. Sprinkle with additional walnuts before glaze hardens.
