For this Tasty Tuesday I’m making Fair Trade Malted Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies! For this Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe, I used different chocolate chips (last time I used SunSpire’s Fair Trade 42% Cacao Chips) and a recipe from another favorite blogger; this time it was The Pioneer Woman and I have to say with all honesty these fair trade chocolate chip cookies were amazing!!! The Guittard fair trade chocolate chips were even better than the last ones and the recipe was just great and simple; two of my favorite things.
The recipe I followed was the Pioneer Woman’s “Malted Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies”, she used plain malted milk powder and I used chocolate malted milk powder. Two things worried me about this recipe: 1) would it be too malty and 2) would my addition of chocolate malt powder be too chocolate-y (if there is such a thing). The answer is NO, not too malty and not too chocolate-y, they were awesome!
And just a quick aside, I only baked the cookies for 10 minutes because I enjoy a more chewy than crispy cookie and these fair trade chocolate chip cookies came out perfectly!
