Even though the chocolate chips were melted then cooled, these should last at room temperature a couple days I hope right? Send them for valentines day but theyre waiting till monday to open em

aS LONG AS YOU DON'T SIT THEM IN FRONT OF A BLAZZING FIRE OR NEST TO A HOT STOVE THEY WILL BE FINE.

IF YOUR'S ARE LIKE THE ONES i MADE A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO, THE WALL THICKNESS IS CONSIDERABLY thicker than those of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. if they stay solid at well above normal room temperature, yours should as well.

Sorry about the all caps. They don't call me king of the Typoists without reason.

They would probably be fine, but be sure to use a good quality chocolate chip (not candy quick chocolate) and don't heat it above 91 degrees. When you get chocolate too hot, the molecules get compromised and it may not set back completely.

i would be more concerned the actual cookie part would go soft if it wasnt sent in an airtight container than the chocolate melting

send them in an airtight container rather than a nice box and they will be fine
