How to Make Sour Cream Cookies W Raisins

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup sour cream, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Stir in 1 cup raisins and ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional).
  7. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges.
  9. Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
