Chocolate Chips with an Edge

Chocolate chip cookies are my favorite. So when I was offered a malted chocolate chip cookie today I couldn't possibly turn it down. Oh and I'm so glad I didn't. It was delicious. It looks just like a regular chocolate chip but it has malted milk powder added to the dough. Now if your concerned about where to get the malted milk I found out that it's located in the coffee aisle by the nondairy creamers.
