Method
- Step 1
- Adjust racks in oven to divide it into thirds and preheat to 350°F (180°C).
- Step 2
- Line baking sheets with parchment paper or aluminum foil, shiny side up.
- Step 3
- Soak raisins in hot water until plump; drain and spread them out on a tray with paper towels. Set aside.
- Step 4
- In a medium bowl, sift together flour, soda, and salt; set aside.
- Step 5
- In a large bowl, beat butter with an electric mixer until soft; mix in vanilla and sugar; followed by eggs and then sour cream.
- Step 6
- On low speed, gradually add the sifted dry ingredients and beat only until mixed.
- Step 7
- Stir in the raisins, nuts and nougat bar chunks.
- Step 8
- Take large heaping tablespoons of the dough and place on baking sheets at least 2 inches (5 cm) apart (they will spread).
- Step 9
- Bake two sheets at a time for 13-15 minutes. Reverse sheet top to bottom and front to back a few times during baking. When done they should be a golden colour all over and should spring back when lightly pressed with a fingertip on the top.
- Step 10
- Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool.
