I wouldn't recommend this recipe to a friend. There are better chocolate chip peanut butter bar recipes out there.

The bars were a bit too crumbly for my liking. I think I'll try chilling the dough before baking next time.

I found the bars to be a bit dry. I think I'll add an extra egg to the recipe next time.

These bars are a bit too sweet for my taste. Next time, I'll reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe.

I'm not a huge fan of peanut butter, but I love these bars. The chocolate chips really balance out the flavor.

I've made these bars gluten-free by using gluten-free flour. They turned out just as delicious as the original recipe.

My favorite thing about this recipe is that you don't have to chill the dough before baking. It's a great last-minute dessert option.

My kids love helping me make these bars. They especially enjoy pressing the chocolate chips into the peanut butter layer.

I love the gooey texture of the peanut butter layer. It's the perfect complement to the crunchy chocolate chips.
