Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams light brown sugar, packed
- 1 whole large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 190 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 60 grams malted milk powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 170 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 85 grams milk chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer.
Step 3
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until fully incorporated.
Step 4
In a separate medium-sized bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, malted milk powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Step 6
Fold in the semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips using a spatula until evenly distributed in the dough.
Step 7
Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft. Be careful not to overbake.
Step 9
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Store the malted chocolate drops in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Enjoy!
