I loved how the cake turned out. The icing was not so good. I doubled the raisins and probably would put even more in there next time, maybe 3/4 cup, but that is my preference. The amount of walnuts needed was unclear to me, so I used half a cup. Again, I might use a little more next time. I did not like the icing. I would probably just use the cream cheese and no butter next time.
