Ingredients

  • 8 oz semi-sweet chocolate melted
  • 8 tbsp softened butter (1 stick)
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch

For rolling:

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

Instructions

  • Break your chocolate bar into small pieces and add it to a microwave safe bowl. Microwave the chocolate in 30 second intervals, making sure to stir in-between until completely melted and smooth.
  • Line a plate or baking sheet with parchment paper and use a tablespoon to spoon the chocolate onto the parchment paper in 12 equal sized rounds. Transfer to the freezer for 20 minutes or until they’re firm.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • While the chocolate freezes, make the batter by combining softened butter and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl. Crack in the egg and add the vanilla extract. Mix until smooth, then sprinkle in the flour, cornstarch, and baking soda. Mix until a batter forms.
  • Portion the dough into 12 equal pieces. Working one by one, flatten out a piece of the dough, place a round of chocolate in the center, and wrap the dough around it until the chocolate is completely covered.
  • Add the granulated sugar to a small mixing bowl and toss each cookie in the sugar to completely cover the exterior.
  • Bake the cookies on the parchment lined baking sheets for 14-15 minutes. You'll know they're done when they're puffed and lightly golden on the edges.
