I asked myself as I was melting down the frosting, "when this dries, won't it still be the consistency of frosting?" And sure enough... it was. Maybe these would be fine to serve my family, but definitely not an addition to a Christmas platter. They were a sticky mess. If ever I attempted them again, I would use the candy coating. Edit: After sitting in the fridge for a couple of days, the frosting did harden up, but then was the consistency of... well... old frosting (dry/flaky). I'm sticking with the candy coating going forward. I will say that my son loved the peanut butter filling!
