Sour Cream Cookies
These are about as simple and old fashioned as they come. Soft and tender, and not overly sweet, these moist cake-like cookies feature a hint of lemon and are velvety soft.
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup shortening
2 eggs
1/2 cup buttermilk or sour milk
4 cups flour
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp lemon extract
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
Use an electric hand or stand mixer for this recipe.
In a large bowl, cream together sugar, shortening and eggs. Beat until light a fluffy. Add the flour and milk alternately until both ingredients are well mixed in. Add sour cream, baking soda, baking powder, salt, lemon and vanilla. Mix well until everything is well combined. Place bowl with dough in refrigerator for at least a half hour.
In the meantime, preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Once the dough has been chilled it should feel firmer. Pinch a tablespoon of dough at a time and roll into a ball. Place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Cut a small piece of parchment paper. Using a flat-bottomed glass/tumbler, place the parchment over the ball of dough and press down with the glass to flatten ball to about a quarter-inch thick discs. Press down all the dough balls into discs.
Now you can sprinkle the top of the discs with sugar, sprinkles, or non-pareils. If you want to frost or ice the tops of the cookies after baking, leave them plain.
Bake cookies in 350 degree oven for 8 to 10 minutes. Tops of cookies will not brown, but bottom of cookies should be lightly golden.
Remove from oven and transfer cookies to cooling rack. Let cool completely before frosting or icing, if you are doing so.
Makes six dozen cookies.

1939 Sour Cream Cookies - Old Cookbook Show - Home Ec Spice Cookies Recipe
1939 Sour Cream Cookies - Old Cook Book Show
This cookie recipe is from the Home Economics textbook used in Spokane Washington in 1939. They were a good cookie, but needed a lot more sour cream than the recipe called for. This is a light spice cookies recipe on the old cookbook show.
Sour Cream Cookies
2 ¼ c. sifted flour (I did sift)
3 t. baking powder
½ t. soda
¼ t. salt
½ c. shortening
⅔ c. packed brown sugar
1 egg beaten
½ c. heavy sour cream (recipe needed at least ½ cup extra)
½ t. cinnamon
¼ t. nutmeg
½ c. raisins
Method:
Sift flour once, measure add baking powder, soda, salt and sift together. Cream butter and add sugar gradually creaming until light and fluffy. Add egg and beat well. Add flour, alternately with sour cream, beating after each addition until smooth. Drop from teaspoon on ungreased baking sheet and bake in a hot oven, 8-10 minutes.
Aunt Eileen's Sour Cream Cake:
***I know that in the video it sounds like I didn't sift the flour before measuring - But I did. In older recipes like this that ask you to sift, then measure; sifting is important to get the right measurement. Recipes that ask you to measure, then sift; I hardly ever sift.

Ingredients
½ cup (125 mL) sour cream
½ cup (125 mL) buttermilk
½ cup (115 g) sugar
1 large egg
½ tsp (3 g) fine salt
2 cup (300 g) all purpose flour
¾ tsp (4 g) baking soda
dash of ground nutmeg
vegetable oil for frying
icing sugar for dusting
cinnamon sugar for coating
Directions
1. Whisk sour cream, buttermilk, sugar, egg and salt together. Sift together flour, baking soda and nutmeg and add to sour cream mixture, stirring just to blend. Let dough sit while heating oil.
2. Heat 2 inches (5 cm) of oil in a high-sided pot to 350°F (180°C), measured on a fryer or sugar thermometer. With a small ice cream scoop or with a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of dough carefully into oil. Let cook until doughnuts are a deep brown on one side, about 4 minutes, before turning and cooking to the same colour on the other side (often they turn themselves over when they are cooked on one side!). Remove doughnuts with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towel.
3. Let doughnuts cool 10 minutes, then sift icing sugar on top and serve, or toss in cinnamon sugar while warm.
