These magic cookie bars were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. The meringue topping was light and fluffy, and the chocolate chips and walnuts added a nice crunch. I think I would have liked them better if they were less sweet.

These magic cookie bars were a disappointment. The meringue topping was too sweet and the chocolate chips and walnuts were not evenly distributed. The bars were also too gooey and chewy for my taste. I will not be making these again.
