Malted Triple Chocolate Cookies

I've been seriously needing a chocolate cookie the past couple of days, and this is the one I settled on.  I found the original recipe here, and fiddled with it just a bit.  These cookies are soft and chewy with the perfect amount of chocolate flavor!  These cookies get their triple chocolate from cocoa powder, chocolate malted milk powder, and chocolate chips.  So delicious!

Malted Triple Chocolate Cookies

1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
6 Tablespoons chocolate malted milk powder
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 350F.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.  Add the egg and vanilla and beat until well blended.  Add the flour, malted milk powder, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt, and beat until just combined.  Stir in the chocolate chips.

Scoop the dough into tablespoon size balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.  Bake the cookies for 8 to 9 minutes, or until just set in the center (you want them to stay soft when they cool, so take care not to overbake).  Remove the cookies from the oven and let cool on the pan for several minutes.  Transfer cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely.  Makes about 30 cookies.

Enjoy!  -Cardamommy
