No need to ask how long it lasts as it doesn't . I add chilli.

The man I'm making it for currently holds the record for how quickly any one person has consumed something I've made for them... so it sounds like he will surpass his own record with these :-))

Did you think it was a nice smell Amy?

I had one friend refuse to try them because she'd had nuts and bolts before and thought they were disgusting BUT before the other girl ate the lot she decided to try them and LOVED them... lol..  a convert so they must be good!!

Just made these to take away with me this weekend. I am on nibbles for our cabin at the Blackwood Marathon. They are terrible. I keep picking at them every time I give them a stir.

I hope it doesn't take too long for the oil to soak in or there may not be any left to take.

I make these often...don't know if this helps anyone, but...they are nicer if left for 4-5 days, turning each day.
Also, my SIL keeps hers in the freezer and says they are even nicer cold....
We all  love them.
:D
