Cook the sugar, sour cream and butter together in a saucepan over low heat, stirring often at first to combine. Then let mixture come to a boil until a medium-hard ball forms when dropped in cold water (246 degrees on a candy thermometer). Add the pecans, stirring to coat well. Drop by spoonfuls on waxed paper. Let cool. Yields about 24 pieces.
