WEDNESDAY CAKES

By baderr

Grammy (Sacks) Winkelbauer would make these for my friends almost every week - they still talked about them when we were in our 50s.

If she was short on time, she would throw chocolate chips in the batter and skip icing the cookies. When she iced them, she always used chocolate icing. In my old age, however, I’ve grown to prefer white icing!

Ingredients

• 1 stick butter or margarine (melted)
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 pint sour cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 2 3/4 cups flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Preparation

Step 1

Mix all wet ingredients.

Add dry ingredients and mix until smooth.

Drop by spoonful on ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes (if making smaller cookies reduce time).
