These bars were a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly and the marshmallow filling was too sweet. I won't be making them again.

I've made these bars several times now and they're always a hit. I like to experiment with different types of chocolate and nuts. My favorite combination is dark chocolate and chopped peanuts.

These bars were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I'll try using a different type of flour next time.

I'm not a big fan of peanut butter, but I really enjoyed these bars. The marshmallow and chocolate flavors really balance out the peanut butter.

These bars were a bit too sweet for me, but I think that's just a personal preference. I'll try using a different type of chocolate next time.

These bars were a bit too dry for my liking. I think I'll add a little more butter next time.

I've made these bars several times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I like to add a little bit of sea salt to the top before baking for a sweet and salty flavor combination.

I love how simple these bars are to make. I didn't have any marshmallows on hand, so I used mini marshmallows instead. They worked great!
