These were delicious but I thought they would be firmer. I froze them overnight - was it something I did or are they supposed to be rather 'loose'?

Great question! Yes, they are supposed to be soft but firm, not loose. Make sure to use regular frozen whipped topping and not fat free. Also, be sure to not over stir when adding the frozen whipped topping. Let us know how this turns out for you next time that you make it. We would love to know!

Yum! Didn't even need the extra toppings! My teenage son declared them to be incredibly scrumptious!

joan nick. Did you use evaporated milk instead of comdensed milk that the recipe called for. If so that's why it didn't turn out.

Sorry they didn't turn out better, Joan. You might have misread the recipe because it doesn't call for evaporated milk, but rather sweetened condensed milk. Maybe give it another shot.
