I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bars turned out really dry. I think I might have overbaked them.

I had a hard time finding dark rum, so I used light rum instead. The bars still turned out great!

These bars were a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would have preferred a lighter filling.

I had some trouble getting the crust to set properly. I think I might have needed to chill it for longer.
