The bars were a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some more butter or oil next time.

These bars were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm not a fan of peanut butter, but I really liked these bars. The chocolate ganache really balances out the peanut butter flavor.
