Yodel making tips | Imamother

I am planning to make yodels (among other things) for my GS's bar mitzvah kiddush.

I found this recipe: Yodels

For the glaze that looks like an awful large amount of margarine melted with the chocolate. What do you think. Is the amount right? Any reason not to use oil instead?

Also, I am considering instead of the cream recipe here to make the one from the Pesach Yodels recipe on here (just 10 oz. whip beaten with ½ pkg. instant vanilla pudding). Any thoughts?

Please give me tips to make this look as neat and professional as possible. When I made the Pesach ones, my biggest problem was the chocolate glaze pooling around them forming "feet". Should I put them on a rack after glazing? Wouldn't that make marks on the bottom?

TIA

Can't answer your other questions but regarding the '"feet", after they were completely dried I used a really sharp knife and carefully trimmed that part off.
