Pillsbury's Scottish Reels image

A bakeoff recipe; I haven't tried it yet. They frosted theirs with a chocolate cream cheese frosting. You could either make this from scratch or choose a tub of premade chocolate frosting.

Time 1h35m

Yield 60 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup firmly-packed brown sugar
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup shortening
3 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
2 eggs
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup quick-cooking rolled oats
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
chocolate frosting, if desired

Steps:

  • Melt the chocolate; I prefer melting in the microwave for just a few seconds, stirring, repeat until it's done.
  • Combine that and everything else except the topping stuff. Chill at least 1 hour.
  • Combine oats and 2 T. confectioners sugar.
  • Drop chilled dough by rounded teaspoon onto greased cookie sheets. Flatten to about 1/4-inch with glass greased and dipped in the oat and sugar mixture.
  • Bake at 350 for 12 - 15 minutes. Cool; then frost.

These were a bit too dry for my liking. I think I'll try adding some extra butter to the dough next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but mine didn't turn out as golden brown as the picture. They were still tasty though.

Not a fan of the cream cheese filling. Otherwise, they were pretty good.

These Scottish Reels brought back so many childhood memories. My grandma used to make them for us all the time. They're just as good as I remember!

A bit too sweet for my taste, but overall a good recipe.
