      Kelly,
      Assuming I don’t eat all of them in one sitting, should they be stored in the refrigerator?

      Hi Patty, according to the recipe, they can be stored in the refrigerator up to 3 days. Please let us know how they come out (and how many you can manage to eat at once) :)

      Made these for a party on Saturday- I rolled half of them in cinnamon and the other half in a chocolate-chili powder mixture– They were a HUGE hit!! The cinnamon ones were particularly amazing–next time, I’m adding cinnamon as it cooks and they should be extra-fabulous!

      These were easy until I got to decorating them. I made the mistake of rolling them all and *then* trying to decorate when I should have just dropped them into the sprinkles immediately after rolling. I think my kitchen was too warm and it was just a sticky mess everywhere despite lightly spraying my hands with nonstick spray.

      And then the sprinkles.

      Everywhere.

      They are very cute and delicious but tested my patience. :)

      AWESOME! For two main reasons.

      First, I love that you can do lots of different variations on the theme (Alicevirginia – must try yours). I rolled some of mine in coconut, some in rainbow sprinkles (for the kids) and BEST OF ALL, filled some with dulce de leche (admittedly a teeny bit of a pain) and rolled in a mix of golden sprinkles and sea salt crystals. Next time, I think I will just give a light dusting of sea salt crystals. I called them Argentine tango because they had the dulce de leche and were all sparkly. Fun!

      Second, this is a recipe that young kids can really get into. My daughter had a blast – she said it was like sticky yummy play dough. It is.

      These are so cute and tasty! I made mine a little too big, but the flavor is wonderful, kind of like solid hot fudge. Great recipe, very easy!
