3/4 c Butter

1 1/2 c Sugar

3 x Eggs

1 1/2 ts Vanilla

2 c Sour cream

3 c Flour-unsifted all purpose

1/2 ts Baking powder

1 1/2 ts Baking soda

1/8 ts Salt

****combine**** 3/4 c Walnuts-chopped

4 tb Cinnamon

Cream butter and sugar till fluffy. Add eggs one at a time. Blend well. Add vanilla and sour cream. Blend till creamy. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and beer. Blend well. In a small bowl, combine nuts, chips, sugar and cinnamon. Pour flour mixture into greased and floured tube pan. You may alternate flour mixture then nut and chip mixture. Or you may combine nuts and chip mixture to flour mixture and pour all into pan. I do the latter. Bake at 350~ 50-60 minutes or till inserted knife comes out clean. Leave cake

in pan about 10 minutes then empty on to rack to cool. *I dust chips with flour to prevent sticking. Source: Lynne Green-UAL
