This cookie is not real sweet and you can dress it up with colored sugars, icing or even chocolate. These have always been my very favorite cookie. - Submitted by lonewolf from Lost Creek, PA. Ingredients:

1 cup sugar |
3/4 cup sour cream |
1 egg |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg |
