I tried making these candy bars, but they didn't turn out well. The chocolate didn't set properly and the whole thing was a mess. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These candy bars were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of peanut butter, but these candy bars were still really good. The chocolate and oats balance out the peanut butter flavor perfectly. I'll definitely be making these again!

Just made these and they turned out great! The only thing I did differently was use dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet. They're a bit more bitter, but I still love them.
