Preheat the oven to 400º F.

Sift together the flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder.

In a different bowl, beat the eggs and cream together with the butter,
sugar and vanilla.

Add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture alternately with the sour cream.

Drop by medium tablespoonfuls 4 inches apart, onto "air bake" cookie sheets
