Recipe detials:

18 oz Frozen artichoke hearts; - t 1 c Canola or corn oil 1 1/2 c Granulated sugar 2 lg Eggs; at room temperature 2 c All-purpose flour 1 ts Baking soda 1 ts Baking powder 1 ts Cinnamon 1/2 ts Ground cloves 1 pn Salt 1 c Chopped walnuts or pecans 1 c Raisins Confectioners' sugar; - for In a medium saucepan over high heat, bring 1 inch of water to a boil. Cook the artichoke hearts, uncovered, for 5 minutes; drain and puree in a food processor. Set aside. Preheat the oven to 350 F. Butter a 9-inch bundt pan. In the large bowl of an electric mixer set at moderately high speed, beat the oil and sugar together until just combined. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, and beat until creamy. Stir together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, and salt; add to the oil mixture and beat until smooth. Beat in the reserved artichoke puress until thoroughly blended. With a rubber spatula fold in the nuts and raisins. Transfer the batter to the bundt pan and bake in the center of the oven for 1 hour, or until a tester inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 to 15 minutes. Run a thin-bladed knife around the inner and outer edges of the bundt pan and invert onto a serving dish or cake stand. Dust with the confectioners' sugar. NOTE: If you would like a higher, lighter-textured cake, separate the eggs, adding only the yolks to the oil and sugar, then beat the whites until they hold stiff peaks and fold them into the batter just before folding in the nuts and raisins.
