Chocolate Malt Cupcakes — Stacie Lamoore

When I made the Malted Chocolate Cookies a couple months ago Alex suggested that I try and turn them into cupcakes. These are reminiscent of malted milk balls. If you have malted milk balls or robin’s eggs on hand you could use these as garnish. Since Alex finished off all the Robin’s Eggs I had on hand I simply used a mixture of cocoa and malt powders and sprinkled it on lightly with a fine mesh sieve.To make these cupcakes I’ve used Horlicks Malt powder. You can use any malt powder that you can get, Ovaltine, Nestle Malted Milk drink powder or Horlicks will work. Using this simply gives the cupcake and frosting the malt taste you’ll enjoy.

I have instructions to use reconstituted malt drink powder in the cupcakes. The amount of malt powder I’ve added to the milk is what is suggested for Horlicks. You can adjust the amount of powder added to the milk depending on what the instructions say. Be sure to double check your packaging for correct directions so all of the powder will dissolve.
