Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 °F and center oven rack. Prepare cookie sheet with a non-stick mat or parchment paper.
In a large bowl whisk the melted butter and granular sugar until smooth.
Add in the egg and vanilla extract. Whisk for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture has lightened in color
Add the all purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch. Fold until the dry ingredients have been fully incorporated.
Take a 1-2 tablespoons scoop of cookie dough and flatten it into a round, thin, and flat disk.
Place one Dove chocolate in the center of the cookie disk. Form the cookie dough around the chocolate so it makes a ball.
Roll each cookie dough ball into the granular sugar and place on prepared cookie sheet. These cookies do not spread much but still need a little space between each of them.
Lightly press the cookie dough balls into a thick disk shape (this is essential because they do not spread as they bake).
Bake for 7 to 9 minutes, or until the sides are brown and the tops are set.
Remove the Chocolate Filled Cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes.
Transfer to a cooling rack and allow them to cool to room temperature.
