These dream bars were a complete failure. I followed the recipe exactly, but they turned out dry and crumbly. I don't think I will be making them again.

The instructions for these dream bars were a little confusing. I think I would look for a more straightforward recipe next time.

These dream bars are a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would cut the butter in half next time.

These dream bars were a disaster! The crust was soggy and the filling was runny. I don't think I will be making them again.

The crust on these dream bars was a bit dry. I think I would add a little more butter next time.

I made these dream bars for my family and they were a huge success! The crust was flaky and buttery, and the filling was creamy and sweet. I will definitely be making them again.
