- 10.5 oz granulated sugar (1.5 cups)
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 4.25 oz all-purpose flour (1 cup)
- 1.85 oz chocolate malted milk powder (1/2 cup)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 6 oz malted milk eggs (1 cup), plus more for decorating
- 3 oz chocolate chunks (1/2 cup)
- 6 oz semi-sweet chocolate (1 cup), finely chopped (for frosting)
- 16 oz powdered sugar (4 cups)

- 1.87 oz chocolate malted milk powder (1/2 cup, for frosting)
- 4 tbsp milk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract (for frosting)
- 1/4 tsp salt (for frosting)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13-inch pan with foil and spray it with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large saucepan, melt the chopped semi-sweet and unsweetened chocolate along with the cubed butter over low heat, stirring continuously until smooth. Remove from heat.
- Stir in the granulated sugar until well combined. Gradually add the eggs, whisking one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract until you have a thick, smooth batter.
- Fold in the flour, malted milk powder, and salt until fully incorporated. Gently stir in the malted milk eggs and chocolate chunks.
- Spread the brownie batter evenly into your prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let the brownies cool completely in the pan before proceeding to make the frosting.
- For the frosting, melt the 6 oz of semi-sweet chocolate and allow it to cool to room temperature.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, powdered sugar, malt powder, milk, vanilla extract, and salt until creamy and fluffy.
- Mix the melted chocolate into the frosting and beat for 1 additional minute until fully blended.
- Spread the frosting over the cooled brownies and decorate with extra malted milk eggs.
Notes
For serving suggestions, try it a la mode with vanilla ice cream or drizzled with caramel sauce.
