Once molded they are aged for up to a week, in a sealed container in a cool dark place, before serving. They will keep for up to a month before becoming too feeble to pick up in one piece as the evaporation process desiccates the packed structure of the cookie.
Another variation has a similar filling, but with a chocolate exterior. The filling can also be similar to a truffle or a cherry cordial, with bourbon added.
Using other types of alcohol one can make rum balls, flavored vodka balls or liqueur balls.

So basically, what I'm taking away from this Zane, is......I need to eat them all...and very quickly?
