o_c37@gmail.comI'm not sure what I did wrong, but my squares turned out dry and crumbly. I think I might have used too much flour in the crust.

c-m0@hotmail.co.ukThese squares were a bit too rich for me. I think I would have preferred them with a less濃厚 creamy peanut butter filling.

queenvanessa#1@gmail.comI had some trouble getting the squares to set properly. I think I might have overcooked the peanut butter filling. But even though they were a little soft, they were still very tasty.

akhtar-jameel@hotmail.frThese squares were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed them. I think next time I'll use less sugar in the peanut butter filling.

theforgottensoul3@hotmail.comI'm not usually a big fan of peanut butter desserts, but these squares were surprisingly delicious. The peanut butter flavor was rich and decadent, but not overpowering. The chocolate ganache on top was the perfect finishing touch.
