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

Mix in the dry ingredients, form the dough into a disk, and chill it for 15 minutes.
Melt 3 tablespoons butter with the chocolate, then stir in 1/4 cup sugar, vanilla, salt, the remaining egg, and 1 tablespoon flour.
Heat the oven to 350 F and roll the dough 1/8 inch thick on a lightly floured surface.
Cut 3-inch rounds, add a small spoonful of chocolate filling, and fold three edges over it to form triangles.
Bake on baking sheets for 12 to 15 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden, then cool completely.
