Sift dry ingredients into creamed mixture alternating with sour cream and orange juice, mixing until smooth after each addition. Add chopped nuts then pour into a greased and floured bundt cake pan.

Suzi's Note: This is a delicious cake. Good alone, or with cool whip or ice cream. I keep any leftovers in the refrigerator, covered with saran wrap. Shared by MIZ SUZI
