Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 (8 oz) container sour cream
  • 2/3 cup chopped walnuts or 2/3 cup pecans

If it begins to set up, stir in a few drops of hot water and beat smooth again.
