Malteser Cookies

Malteser Cookies

A malted, chocolatey cookie studded with chunks of bashed up Maltesers. They are like fudgy brownies with a crinkly, chewy cookie coating - how can that not be cookie perfection?!

Ingredients

·       115 g soft butter

·       125 g soft brown sugar

·       2 tbsp cocoa powder

·       3 tbsp Ovaltine

·       1 tsp vanilla extract

·       1 medium egg

·       200 g plain flour

·       1/2 tsp baking powder

·       2 x 37g packs of Maltesers chocolate malt ball candies

Instructions

1.    Beat the butter and sugar together until well creamed then beat in the cocoa, Ovaltine, vanilla and the egg.

2.    Sift over the flour and baking powder then mix into the creamed butter mixture until almost fully mixed.

3.    Prick a hole or two in the bags of Maltesers with a sharp knife then bash with a rolling pin (or the pestle from a mortar and pestle) until most of the chocolates are scattered, not dust and tip into the cookie dough. Continue to mix now until well dispersed.
