I had such high hopes for this cookie. I love malt flavor and was anticipating a very malty cookie. But, this cookie was mostly chocolate flavor and low on malt flavor. The half of a malted milk ball on top is a nice touch, but it does nothing for the malt flavor of the dough and actually is a bit hard and crumbly after being baked. Neither the dough nor the cookies were hard and crumbly. My cookies were very moist and spread nicely in the oven. The recipe is decent in terms of the chemistry but the malt flavor needs boosted in order for me to try these again.
