Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar (light or dark )
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups finely chopped pecans (walnuts may be substituted)
  • 1/2 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup sour cream

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Mix the topping ingredients together in a bowl and set aside.
  3. Cream together butter and sugar, then add the egg.
  4. Sift dry ingredients together, then add together.
  5. Roll dough into half-inch balls and place on a greased cookie sheet.
  6. With the end of a wooden spoon, or with a dowel, make a small well in each ball.
  7. Place 1/4 teaspoon pecan topping in each cookie.
  8. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, keeping an eye on them towards the end as they can burn quickly.
  9. Cool on a rack and store in an airtight container.
  10. Note: Original recipe called for 1 Tablespoon whiskey, bourbon or orange juice to be added along with the egg, but I've never used it and found they turn out fine without.
