Step-by-Step Instructions

 Preheat & Prepare

  • Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).

In a medium bowl, whisk together:

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

 Cream the Butter & Sugar

  • Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.

 Alternate Dry Ingredients with Sour Cream

  • Gradually add the flour mixture and 1 cup sour cream, alternating and starting/ending with flour.
