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. Ingredients:
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 |
Directions:
1. Melt the chocolate; I prefer melting in the microwave for just a few seconds, stirring, repeat until it's done.
2. Combine that and everything else except the topping stuff. Chill at least 1 hour.
3. Combine oats and 2 T. confectioners sugar.
4. 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.
5. Bake at 350 for 12 - 15 minutes. Cool; then frost.
