I had some trouble getting the bars to set. I think I might have overcooked them. Next time I'll try baking them for a shorter amount of time.

These bars are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I love that these bars can be made ahead of time. It's so convenient to be able to just grab a bar out of the fridge when I'm craving something sweet.

These bars are a great way to use up leftover egg whites. I always have a few egg whites in my fridge, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses them up.
