Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cold and cut into pieces
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup malt powder
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease 2 baking sheets.
Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt and set aside. In the bowl of a mixer, cream the butter until fluffy. Add the sugars and cream with the butter. The mixture will look a bit grainy. Add the vanilla and eggs and beat together until fluffy. Add the malt powder and mix at low speed just until combined. One-third at a time, add the flour mixture, beating after each addition just until combined. Gently mix in the chocolate chips. Drop by tablespoons onto the baking sheets. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, depending on how crispy you like your cookies. The cookies will be flat. Let cool on wire racks and store in an airtight container.

I agree you can't taste the malt flavor in the cookie. The only change I made was substituting butter flavored crisco for the butter. I did notice my cookies didn't really spread out like she said they would, maybe because of the change I made. Overall a good cookie, nice and soft and good flavor but not a whole lot different tasting then my regular recipe for choc. chip cookies.

While these cookies tasted fine overall, they lacked sufficient malt flavor to list as an ingredient in the title. As a matter of fact, unless you tell someone there is malt in them, I bet they'd never know the difference. I increased the amount of malt required by another 1/4 cup and still not enough flavor was present = not what I expected...

My husband is a malt ball fanatic, so when i saw this recipe, i just had to make them. They came out delicious. I dont love malt usually, but they just come out so super, you really cant tell what the "secret" ingredient is.
