Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ cup butter, softened
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sour cream
1 cup chopped salted cashews
½ cup butter
2 cups confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Blend together 1/2 cup butter, brown sugar, egg, vanilla, and sour cream. Add in the baking powder, soda, and flour. Stir in the nuts.
  • Drop dough by teaspoonfuls onto buttered baking sheets. Cook at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven, and cool on wire racks.
  • To Make the Icing: Heat 1/2 cup butter or margarine in a saucepan until it is light amber colored. Remove pan from heat, and stir in confectioners' sugar and the milk. I sometimes have to use more milk to get the icing smooth and creamy. Frost cookies.

These cookies are a bit crumbly, so be careful when you're handling them.

I had a hard time finding cashew nuts, so I used almonds instead. The cookies still turned out great.
