  3. I do use shortening. Have never tried margarine but I am not sure it would work. If you wanted a buttery flavour you could use the shortening that tastes like butter.

  4. Boy am I glad you don't live nearby, or I would be forced to come over and help you out. My son loved these so much when he was little that I'll never forget going to kiss him goodnight and noticing that he had stacked a dozen of them under his pillow! He also had telltale chocolate marks around his little mouth.
