Pillsbury'S Scottish Reels - cooking recipe

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
    Topping
    1/3 cup quick-cooking rolled oats
    2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
    chocolate frosting, if desired
Preparation
    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.
