I'm not a big fan of pumpkin, but I really enjoyed these squares. The walnuts added a nice flavor and texture.

I followed the recipe exactly and my squares turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These squares were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These squares were easy to make and turned out great! I used a gluten-free flour blend and they still came out moist and delicious.
