I followed the recipe exactly, but my bars turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These bars are a little too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I added a cup of dried cranberries to the batter, and they turned out great! The cranberries added a bit of tartness that balanced out the sweetness of the white chocolate.

I've tried several different white chocolate macadamia nut bar recipes, and this one is by far the best. The bars are always moist and chewy, and the flavor is amazing.
