Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.

In a large bowl, whisk butter, sugars, and vanilla until thick.

Whisk the egg into the butter mixture until light and fluffy, then whisk in the peanut butter.
-
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.

Pour 1/2 cup granulated sugar into a small shallow bowl.

Re-roll all formed dough balls in sugar.
-
Place the baking sheet in the freezer for at least 30 minutes.

Immediately press a chocolate candy gently into the center of each cookie and return to the oven for 2 minutes.
