Syrian Oriental Cake

2 cups light brown sugar (packed)
½ cup butter or margarine (1 cube)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 egg
1 cup sour cream
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. soda
½ cup chopped nuts (pecans)

Work by hand the sugar, flour and butter. Sprinkle half of this mixture into a well-greased spring form pan 7x3 (I use a tube pan). Mix sour cream, soda, and nutmeg together. Pour into the remaining sugar, flour, and butter mixture. Add the egg and beat all well. Pour over mixture in pan. Sprinkle the top with nuts. Bake at
300 degrees for 1 1/4 hours or tested as done.
