These bars were a complete disaster. They were dry, crumbly, and flavorless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bars turned out really dry. I think I might have overbaked them.

The crust was the perfect balance of buttery and flaky. It held up well to the creamy cheesecake filling.

These cranberry pumpkin cheesecake bars were a hit at my Thanksgiving gathering! The combination of flavors was perfect, and the bars were the perfect balance of sweet and tangy.
