I'm not a huge fan of peanut butter, but I really enjoyed these bars. The cranberries add a nice tartness that balances out the sweetness of the peanut butter. I would definitely make these again.

I was a bit disappointed with these bars. They were too dry and crumbly for my taste. I think I would have preferred a more gooey texture.

These bars were really easy to make and they tasted great! The only thing I would change is to use a little less sugar. They were a bit too sweet for my taste.
