These bars were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my bars turned out really crumbly. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

These bars were a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some extra butter or oil next time.

These peanut butter bars were a hit with my family! They were so easy to make and tasted delicious. I used a different brand of peanut butter than the recipe called for, but they still turned out great.
