Back during the beginning of December, we were having company up so I did some baking. I had already started my Christmas baking and Adam had requested fruitcake cookies. So along with those, I wanted to make some other type of dessert.
We had some leftover sour cream on hand so I decided on a sour cream coffee. I found a maple-cinnamon coffee cake recipe on Pinterest. And oh man, it was SO good! I highly, highly recommend using that recipe. But make sure you have some people around to help you eat it because I could have easily ate half the cake to myself.
1. Mix glazed fruit, raisins, and pecans in bowl with 1/2 cup of flour. Stir until fruit is coated.
2. Cream butter and sugar in separate large bowl. Add eggs one at a time and beat after each addition. Add vanilla. Beat.
3. Combine 1 cup of flour, baking soda, and cinnamon in small bowl. Add to butter mixture. Mix until no dry flour remains. Add fruit mixture and mix well.
4. Drop mixture with a tablespoon onto greased cookie sheets. Bake for 15-18 minutes at 325 F. Remove to wire racks to cool.
I'm not a fan of fruitcake. Adam and my Mom are big fans so I've made these a couple times now. They do taste like fruitcake. I can say that much and apparently they're very good according to my family. So if you're someone who likes fruitcake, then give these cookies a go!
