These malted milk blondies have plenty of extra elements including milk chocolate chips and toasted walnuts and melted salted caramels.
In the sweet world of bar cookies, I can’t say that blondes have more fun.
I think most people, if given the choice, would pick a rich chocolatey brownie for an indulgence rather than a blondie.
With their pale golden crumb, blondies are far more subtle than their flashy chocolate cousins, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t a satisfying treat.
While not visible to the eye, the addition of malt powder made this batch of blondies special.
Any excuse to add our favorite milkshake flavoring to a dessert was guaranteed to be a big hit around our house.
Milk chocolate chips and toasted walnuts dotted the malted milk blondies.
They were finished off with melted salted caramel candies.
