I followed the recipe exactly, but my bars didn't turn out. They were too crumbly and didn't hold together.

These bars are a bit dry. I would recommend adding some more butter or oil to the recipe.

I found that these bars were a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less chocolate or adding some tart fruit, like cranberries or raspberries.

I'm not a huge fan of oatmeal, but these bars are an exception. The chocolate and walnuts really balance out the flavor of the oats.
