Steps:
- Sift the flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon together and set aside.
- Beat the butter with the sugar until well blended and creamy. Beat in the egg.
- Mix the sour cream and baking soda together and add to the butter mixture. Add the dry ingredients and beat well to make a soft dough. It will be sticky, so cover and chill the dough for about 30 minutes until it is firm enough to handle. If the kitchen is hot you may need to chill the dough a little longer.
- Lightly grease baking sheets. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Take walnut-size pieces of the dough and roll into balls. Arrange on the baking sheets about two inches apart to allow for spreading. Flatten the balls with the tines of a fork. Bake 10 to 15 minutes until the cookies are golden brown but still slightly soft in the center. Allow to cool for a couple of minutes on the pans, then transfer them to racks to cool completely.

Tips:
- Make sure your butter and sour cream are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the ingredients blend together more easily and create a smoother cookie dough.
- If you don't have any sour cream, you can substitute plain yogurt or buttermilk. However, keep in mind that these substitutions may slightly alter the taste and texture of the cookies.
- Don't overmix the cookie dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the cookies at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to brown. Don't overbake the cookies, or they will become dry and crumbly.
Conclusion:
Sour cream cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their soft and chewy texture and tangy flavor, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a simple and delicious cookie recipe, give sour cream cookies a try!
