Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt until smooth. Add the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the peanut butter and continue beating for another minute. Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat until smooth. Mixing on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture and knead until smooth.
  2. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.

  3. Position 2 oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray 2 baking sheets with cooking spray.
  4. Form half the dough into 2.5 cm balls (about 1 tablespoon each), then roll in granulated sugar. Place on prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 5 cm apart. Refrigerate the remaining dough while baking the first batch.
  5. Bake, rotating the baking sheets and rotating them halfway through, until the cookies are puffy and lightly golden, 10-11 minutes. Immediately press a chocolate candy into the center of each cookie.
  6. Let cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely. Repeat with the remaining dough.

    Note

    For this recipe, use regular store-bought peanut butter, not "natural" peanut butter. It will have a better flavor and texture.
