I have this pinwheel recipe in Maida Heatter's Book of Great Cookies, copyright 1977, 7th printing 1981, on p. 152. In it, she says to roll the dough starting with the LONG side. It looks to me from your photos that you started with the short side. That would explain why you got fewer cookies. Thanks for sharing your baking with us!<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3381055629874919944.post-63814364057253243162013-08-22T08:30:09.535-07:002013-08-22T08:30:09.535-07:00I think your cookies look beautiful!!

To keep cut and bake cookies round while chilling, I place them in the cardboard inner of paper towels or a postage tube. If you have the right size you don't end up with a flat side.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
