Overall, I thought these squares were just okay. They weren't as good as I was hoping for.

The squares didn't turn out as gooey as I expected. I think I may have overbaked them.

I found the instructions in the recipe to be a bit confusing. I had to reread them a few times before I understood what I was supposed to do.

These squares are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I've also made these squares with different types of chocolate chips. White chocolate chips and dark chocolate chips both work well.

I made these squares gluten-free by using a gluten-free flour blend. They turned out just as good as the original recipe.
