I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bars didn't turn out very well. They were too dry and crumbly.

I didn't have any cinnamon on hand, so I used pumpkin pie spice instead. It gave the bars a nice fall flavor.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the pecans for chopped walnuts. They turned out just as good!

I had some trouble getting the bars to set properly. I think I might have overcooked them a little bit. But even though they were a little overcooked, they still tasted really good.

These bars are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time. Other than that, they're really good.

I'm not a huge fan of cinnamon, but I actually really enjoyed these bars. The cinnamon flavor is subtle and not overpowering. The pecan topping is also really good. It adds a nice crunch and sweetness to the bars.
