SOUTHERN SOUR CREAM PECAN COOKIES

These cookies are good anytime and wonderful for the holidays.    They have such a wonderful flavor and are very easy to make.  You will love these Southern treats and your guests will come back for more!

1/2 cup oil (I use Canola)
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla flavoring
1/2 cup sour cream
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup pecan pieces
 
Topping
1/4  cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon 
 
In a large mixing bowl  whisk together the oil, eggs, sugar, vanilla and sour cream.  Add flour, baking powder, salt, and soda and mix well with a large spoon. Fold in pecans.   In a smaller bowl mix the sugar and cinnamon for the topping.  Batter will look like cake batter.  Drop by tablespoon full onto a very lightly sprayed cookie sheet.  Sprinkle a pinch of the sugar and cinnamon topping on each cookie.   Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven 15 to 20 minutes.  Makes about 2 1/2 dozen depending on the size you make the cookies.   Enjoy!

  2. Mmm. Judy, these sound wonderful. I’ll keep them in mind when the weather cools down and I stand to turn on the oven again. We sure have lots of pecans here at the Pecan House!

  3. Can’t wait to try these pecan cookies!

  4. My two favorite ingredients!
