These almond bars were a nice treat. They were easy to make and the chocolate glaze was a nice touch. However, I found the almond filling to be a bit too dry. Next time, I would add more butter or oil to the batter.

These chocolate glazed almond bars were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with a less sweet glaze. But overall, they were still pretty good.
