I had trouble finding malted milk powder at my local grocery store. I ended up ordering it online, but it was worth the wait. These cookies are so good!

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

Easy to make and absolutely delicious! I used dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet and they turned out great. The malted milk powder gives them a unique flavor that I love.
