Directions
Heat oven to 375°F.
In a large bowl combine sugar, brown sugar, margarine, almond butter, egg, and vanilla; beat well.
Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup; level off.
Add flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt to sugar mixture; mix well.
Shape a portion of dough smoothly around each piece of candy bar, making sure bar is completely covered.
You want to use just enough dough to entirely cover the candy piece, not a huge amount.
