INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup butter or margarine, softened
  • 1 1/4 cups sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/4 cups sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • FILLING:
  • 3/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 3/4 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add sour cream and vanilla; mix well. Combine the flour, baking powder, nutmeg and baking soda; add to creamed mixture just until combined (batter will be stiff). Place half of the batter in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking pan.
  2. Combine the filling/topping ingredients. Sprinkle half over batter. Spread remaining batter over top. Sprinkle with remaining filling/topping. Bake at 325 degrees F for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire rack.

This recipe is good but not great. It seemed as if the recipe didn't make enough dough/filling when you split in half. I had to make more topping for the top part. My husband liked it a lot but I thought it was kind-of bland.

This was very tasty! I liked it even better after it cooled. I didn't have the right ingredients so I used half sour cream and half plain yogurt. I do think that next time I'll just mix half of the topping in instead of layering it and then sprinkle the topping on and lightly push in the chocolate chips/nuts on the top. Also, I set my oven wrong (to 375) and cooked it for 35 mins and it was actually okay (i'm glad that it didn't burn) It was nice and brown and crispy like a cookie on top that way. Either way it was a hit!! :)
