--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  6       lg           Eggs, separated
  3       c            Sugar
  1       c            Butter
  3       c            Flour, plain
    1/2   t            Baking soda
                       Sour cream (small carton)
  1       t            Vanilla extract
  2       c            Pecans, chopped

 Grease tube pan; preheat oven to 325 degrees F.  Set two sticks of butter
 aside to soften.  Separate eggs; beat whites till stiff and set aside.

 Cut butter into sugar.  Add egg yolks and beat a little.

 Measure flour; use a small amount to mix with nuts until they are
 well-floured.  Mix soda into flour.  Stir flour into butter/sugar/egg
 mixture.  Add sour cream and vanilla.  Can do all this with an electric
 mixer, but now use a spoon to fold in egg whites.

 Fold in nuts and bake approximately 1 1/2 hours until done.
