What To Avoid While Making this Recipe?
- Avoid overmixing the batter, as this can result in tough bars
- Do not overbake the bars, as they will become dry and crumbly

- Be careful not to burn the edges of the bars while baking
- Do not cut the bars while they are still warm, as they need to cool and set first
