* Exported from MasterCook * Chocolate Malted Cookies Recipe By : Linda Magee Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Cookies Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup butter flavored vegetable shortening 1 1/4 cups brown sugar -- firmly packed 1/2 cup malted milk powder 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup 1 large egg 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips 1 cup milk chocolate chips Preheat oven to 350-degrees. Get out 2 cookie sheets; no need to grease them. Mix together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside. In a mixing bowl, combine the shortening, brown sugar, malted milk powder, chocolate syrup and vanilla. Beat 2 minutes, then add the egg and beat for a second or two, until mixed. Gradually add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture, mixing well between additions. Stir in chocolate morsels and chips. I j used Guittard's BIG chocolate morsels and their milk chocolate chips. BTW, these cookies are LOADED with chocolate chips! Shape dough into 2-inch balls. Place 6 balls of dough onto each cookie sheet, spacing them 3 inches apart. The cookies are pretty big, not tiny ones. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until golden brown. Mine took 12 minutes. Don't over-cook them or they'll be hard as a rock. Cool on cookie sheets for at least 2 minutes or they'll fall apart. Cool on wire racks. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - NOTES : Ooctober 95
