Chocolate Malt Ball Cookies
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 30 min. Bake: 10 min./batch + cooling
YIELD: 2-1/2 dozen.
I like malt ball candies, so I decided to create a cookie with mass appeal. The result: chewy cookies with fantastic flavor that you can amp up or tone down by varying the amount of malt powder. —Lynne Weddell, Vacaville, California
