I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bars turned out really dry.

Overall, I thought these bars were just okay. I wouldn't go out of my way to make them again.

The cheesecake filling was a little too runny for my taste. I think I'll try baking it for a few minutes longer next time.

I had some trouble getting the crust to set. I think I may have overmixed the dough.

I used a pre-made graham cracker crust to save time.

I added some chopped walnuts to the crust for extra flavor and crunch.

I halved the recipe and it still made a lot of bars. I was able to freeze some of them for later.

I'm always looking for new cheesecake recipes and this one is definitely a keeper. The pineapple topping is a nice change from the usual graham cracker crust.

These bars are a great way to use up leftover pineapple. I always have a few cans of pineapple in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use them in.

I'm not a big fan of pineapple, but I loved these bars. The cheesecake filling is so creamy and the crust is the perfect balance of flaky and buttery.

These bars were a little too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them.

I've made these bars several times now and they always turn out perfect. The crust is flaky and buttery, and the cheesecake filling is creamy and tangy. The pineapple topping adds a nice touch of sweetness and acidity.
