    List of Ingredients




    1/4 cup butter, softened
    1/4 cup shortening
    3/4 cup sugar
    1 egg
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2-2/3 cups all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon baking powder
    1/4 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 cup sour cream
    3/4 cup finely chopped nuts
    1/3 cup seedless strawberry jam

    Recipe



    In a large bowl, cream the butter, shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Combine the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda; gradually add to the creamed mixture alternately with sour cream, beating well after each addition. Shape into 1-1/4-in. balls; roll in nuts.

    Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Using the end of a wooden spoon handle, make a 3/8- to 1/2-in. deep indentation in the center of each ball. Fill with jam.

    Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool.

    YIELD: 3 dozen

    These freeze well.
