A rich malted milk blondie topped with malted milk frosting and sprinkled with chopped malted candy eggs!
Hop into spring and treat your family to these amazingly delicious, homemade Malted Milk Blondies.
With one bite, these bars remind you of a traditional malted milkshake – the delightful flavors of pure vanilla enhanced with a burst of malted milk goodness!
Even better, these blondies won’t melt as you eat them and hopefully they will last a bit longer than a milkshake!
Adding malted milk powder into both the batter and frosting take blondies to a whole new level.
So, if you love the flavor of malted milk, you are really going to love these sweet treats.
Baking these Malted Milk Blondies will definitely be the highlight of your celebration and everyone will be impressed with how delicious they are!
Just don’t let them know how easy they are to make!
Not only do these taste good, they are also so darn pleasing to the eye!.
I really think these Malted Milk Blondies are one of the prettiest desserts I have ever made.
Just looking at them will make you want to take a big bite and enjoy the amazing flavor combination.
I also love how the chopped pastel candies along with the dark chocolate centers sparkle against the pure white frosting.
