Heat oven to 350ºF. Spray a 10-inch springform pan with Crisco No-Stick Baking Spray.

Stir in raisins. Pour into prepared pan.
Bake 55 to 60 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 to 15 minutes before removing from pan. Place cake, top side up, on wire rack. Cool completely. Place cake on serving plate.
For frosting, melt Butter Flavor Crisco in small saucepan on low heat. Transfer to the bowl of an electric mixer. Add confectioners' sugar. Beat at low, then high speed until blended. Add milk and vanilla. Beat at high speed until smooth and frosting is of desired spreading consistency. Frost top and side of cake. Press nuts into side of cake and around outside top edge.
