Description
Deliciously rich brownies topped with a creamy malted milk frosting and crunchy malted milk balls.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cup butter
- 1 3/4 cups sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 eggs
- 1/4 cup natural unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3/4 cup Special Dark cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 cups malted milk powder
- 1/2 cup butter (at room temperature)
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 oz bittersweet chocolate (melted)
- 7 oz malted milk balls (roughly chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Line an 8-inch baking dish with foil or parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang. Spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Remove from the heat and stir in the sugar, vanilla extract and salt. Whisk until it becomes creamy, about 1 minute.
- Add in the eggs one at a time, whisking in each egg completely before adding another.
- Add both cocoa powders as well as the flour and stir just until combined. Pour into the prepared pan.
- Bake until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 40-45 minutes. Cool completely.
- Beat together the malted milk powder and butter until light and fluffy. Add in the powdered sugar, cream and melted chocolate, and mix until combined.
- Spread over the cooled brownies. Top with the malted milk balls.
- Using the overhang of the foil on the pan, lift the brownies from the pan and cut into bars.
Notes
- Ensure to let the brownies cool completely before frosting to avoid melting the frosting.
- These brownies can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week.
