Had to pull them out a couple minutes early but the ones that didn't melt look better.

yeah, cheap to mid priced toaster ovens are notorious for never being accurate temperature wise. it was suggest to me that I either spend even more coin on a convection oven or buy a cheap oven thermometer. I opted for the thermometer.

before I got non stick foil i'd just stand the boolits on their bases. after they were done cooking but before they were fully cooled I could usually break them from the foil before it was fully stuck. on the ones where the foil did stick I figured it would act like a mini gas check lol.
