So I have a rating system for cookies. It doesn’t involve stars or thumbs up – it involves cookies. Or more specifically how many of the cookies did I eat!
Some cookies are just One Cookie recipes, meaning I ate one and was satisfied, I got a taste and that was enough.
But some cookie recipes are Five Cookie recipes and today’s recipe is one of them! I think I ate at least five. So much for portion control!!
I needed to make cookies to take to some of the ladies from church who are celebrating birthdays this month so it was the perfect excuse to give this recipe a try. I found it over at Sprinkled with Flour – a pretty and delicious new blog I recently discovered.
The malted milk balls are a fun alternative to chocolate chips. The cookies are a nice thin, crispy edged but chewy in the middle type of cookie. The best kind.
So, don’t say I didn’t warn you! A Five Cookie recipe! I can’t be held for responsible for all the extra calories you may be consuming. I better add a few more days onto that 30 Day Shred!
Ingredients
- 3/4 C butter, softenend
- 3/4 C brown sugar, packed
- 3/4 C granulated sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 vanilla extract

- 3/4 tsp salt
- 2 C malted milk balls, coarsely chopped
Instructions

- In another bowl combine your dry ingredients - flour, oats, baking soda and salt
- Add into the butter mixture and combine well
- Add in malted milk balls
- Bake on an ungreased baking sheet for 8-12 minutes, depending on the level of crispness you would like

YUM!!! I cannot wait to try these!!!
Gosh all three of my favorite things coming together! Cookies, chewies, and malted milk balls
I was looking for a recipe like this to use up all those Robin’s Eggs from Easter. I’ll let you know how they work!
I’m so glad you tried these and enjoyed them! They are a favorite at our house:)
So many recipes to try!

After reading this post the other day I can’t stop thinking about these cookies so I thought I would make them on Friday but I noticed both your recipe and the original do not have a yield on them. Do you remember how many they made? I want to bring them to two people with dinners I am bringing over and I want to know if I need to double the recipe. Thank you for your help.
I am pretty sure it made about 3 dozen but I don’t remember exactly.
Thanks that at least gives me a starting point.
