I followed the recipe exactly and my bars turned out terrible. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These bars were a bit too crumbly for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I found these bars to be a bit dry. I think I'll add some more butter next time.

I'm not a big fan of dates, but I loved these bars. They're not too sweet and the oats give them a nice texture.

I've made these date bars several times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. They're the perfect combination of chewy and gooey.
