On which hook do you include the class of your plugin? The best way is plugins_loaded. maybe you create a new instance via new Your_Class and this is to early for the class WP_Widget.

I'm trying to include additional file (require_once( 'include/custom_functions.php' );) that holds widget class and add_action. External file is included out of plugin class. | |

By default the class WP_Widget is loaded earlier than any plugin. Does your widget file run in a WordPress context, or do you call it directly?
