Malted Chocolate Chip Cookies

Yields 3 dozen cookies

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 rounded cup malted milk powder
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugars until fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and malted milk powder. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet and stir until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.

Line baking sheets with parchment (this step is important! The cookies will stick to the pan and then break off into hundreds of pieces when you try to get them off. Learn from my experience). Place a spoonful of batter on the pans, separating the cookies by 3 inches (the cookies spread while baking). Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges begin to brown. Allow to cool on baking sheet before transferring to a cooling rack.
