- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, and line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and sea salt.
- In a separate bowl, stir together butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract.
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Fold in chopped candy.
- Transfer to the prepared baking pan then flatten the dough on the pan with a spatula or your hand. Bake for 23-28 minutes until the edges are golden and the center is still slightly soft.

- Once cooled completely, cut into squares, sprinkle with sea salt, and enjoy!
Notes
I recommend chocolate, peanut butter, toffee, and/or caramel-based candy bars. Hard candy like lollipops will be too hard, and gummies will melt too fast. However, popcorn and pretzels add a delicious crunch to the cookie bars so I recommend adding those.
