2 sticks butter
2 ¾ cups sugar (divided 2 and ¾ cups)
2 eggs, beaten
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups (1 pint) sour cream
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 cups pecans, chopped
1 tablespoon cinnamon

1. Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour a 12-cup bundt pan.

2. In a small bowl, mix ¾ cup of the sugar with the pecans and cinnamon. Set aside.

3. Cream together the butter and 2 cups of the sugar. Add eggs, blending well, then the sour cream and vanilla.

4. Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt.

5. Fold in the dry ingredients in the creamed mixture, and beat until just blended. Do not overbeat.

6. Pour one-third of the batter into the bundt pan. Sprinkle with half of the pecan mixture. Repeat. Then add remaining batter.

7. Set on the middle rack of the oven and bake for about 60 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean.

(Or makes 36 cupcakes--bake at 325 for 20 minutes.)
