Chocolate Malted Cookies
Yield: Makes about 4 dozen cookies
Ingredients:
1/2
cup (1 stick) butter, softened

1/2
cup shortening

1-3/4
cups powdered sugar, divided

1
teaspoon vanilla

2
cups all-purpose flour

1
cup malted milk powder, divided

1/4
cup unsweetened cocoa powder



 
Preparation:
1.
Beat butter, shortening, 3/4 cup powdered sugar and vanilla in large bowl. Add flour, 1/2 cup malted milk powder and cocoa until well blended. Refrigerate several hours or overnight.

2.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Shape slightly mounded teaspoonfuls of dough into balls; place about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 14 to 16 minutes or until lightly browned.

3.
Meanwhile, combine remaining 1 cup powdered sugar and 1/2 cup malted milk powder in medium bowl. Remove cookies to wire racks; cool 5 minutes. Roll cookies in powdered sugar mixture.


Tip Substitute 6 ounces melted semisweet chocolate for the 1 cup powdered sugar and 1/2 cup malted milk powder used to roll the cookies. Instead, dip cookies in melted chocolate and let dry on wire racks until coating is set.
