Kern, I had spots of the same mold in the same places. I brushed it off with a small brush and misted them with cognac, as I had some in a spray bottle for my Manchego, and it seemed to kill it off. I was keeping them sitting on paper towel in the box but have removed that and sat them directly onto the plastic rack in the box. Have to check them this evening to see if the problem is solved.
AnnDee, Thanks for the info on the flavor. I was wondering what they would be like after a month as mine are now rock hard. I assumed the flavor would intensify with age but didn't know if it would be acceptable at one month.
