Fantastic! I used chocolate covered caramels with great success. I handled these like refrigerator cookies, though. I divided the dough in thirds, rolled into "logs" and wrapped in waxed paper. After an HOUR I took out one log at a time and followed directions from there. This keeps the dough firm enough to work with (to avoid the sticky mess one reviewer complained of). Always get raves with this cookie!

I was skeptical of the cinnamon in this recipe, but followed the directions and voila! I loved it, and my friends loved it. I've since made it for pot-luck dinners and always get raves. I use a little more lemon over the meat mixture, and add more if I reheat. A bit more salt sometimes brings out the flavor, too. One of the other reviewers said they found this dish bitter so I was worried -- maybe their cinnamon was old? In any case, I didn't find it bitter at all.
