This recipe looks delicious, but it's a bit too high in calories for my diet. I'll have to save it for a special occasion.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but mine turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked it.

This was a quick and easy recipe to follow. I didn't have any peanuts on hand, so I used chopped walnuts instead. It turned out great!
