These date bars were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of dates, but I actually really enjoyed these bars. The crust was perfectly crispy and the filling was gooey and sweet. I would definitely make these again.

I was a bit disappointed with these date bars. The crust was too dry and the filling was too sweet. I think I will try a different recipe next time.
