Chocolate Malted Cookies

Found this recipe in the Taste of Home magazine.  It took care of my chocoholic urges.
- Jeanne "Grammy"


INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup butter-flavored shortening
  • 1¼ cups packed brown sugar
  • ½ cup malted milk powder
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup (6 oz) milk chocolate chips

INSTRUCTIONS

In a mixing bowl, combine the first five ingredients; beat for 2 minutes.  Add egg.  Combine the flour, backing soda, and salt and gradually add to the creamed mixture, mixing well.  Stir in chocolate chunks and chips.  Shape into 2” balls; place 3’ apart on ungreased baking sheets.  Bake at 375° for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown.  Don’t over bake them or they will become very hard.  Cool for 2 minutes before removing to a wire rack. 

Yields: 1½ dozen cookies.
