Recipe - Moms Michigan Rocks

2 cup Sifted allpurpose flour
2 teaspoon Baking powder
1/8 teaspoon Salt
One half teaspoon Freshly grated nutmeg
One half cup Butter; softened
1 cup Packed light brown sugar
2 lg Eggs
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
One half teaspoon Baking soda
One half cup Sour cream
2 cup Raisins
2 cup Coarsely chopped walnuts

This is not the "Rocks" Recipe I need; but the only one I found! Anyone
have any more? The one I want does not call for Sour Cream and the baking
soda is mixed with boiling water. This one is also good, and I would call
it TNT. I have made it myself. It is from Elaine Tait's mother. Elaine is
the Food Editor of the Philadelphia Inquirer. This was published Dec 22,
1996 in the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Sift flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg together; set aside. Cream
butter with brown sugar until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla and beat. Add
half the flour mixture and mix. Stir baking soda into the sour cream and
add to batter. Mix in remaining flour mixture, reserving 1 Tablespoon.
Sprinkle reserved flour over raisins and toss to coat. Stir raisins and
nuts into dough.

Drop dough by tablespoons, about 2 One half inches apart, onto cookie sheets
lined with foil placed shiny side up.

In 350 degree oven, bake until lightly browned and centers spring back when
pressed. Rotate sheets after 9 minutes to bake evenly. Cool for 1 minute;
transfer to cooling racks.

Makes 36 cookies.
