these look great!
Does the filling without nuts need 7 CUPS cocoa???
Oh no- I see how that isn't so clear. I believe the recipe meant seven-eighths of a cup, not 7 cups! Measure one full cup and remove two tablespoons.
is the dough supposed to be sticky before it sits?
My guess would be that the dough may be a little sticky but once it sits in the fridge it should harden
Does the topping need to be whipped?
no, just pour it all in together
