Easy Malted Brownies Recipe
These Malted Brownies are ultra-chewy, fudgy, and bursting with rich brown butter and malty chocolate flavor. Loaded with chocolate chips and topped with optional sea salt, they’re an easy, no-mixer dessert that tastes like bakery-quality brownies.
Ingredients
- 1 sticks unsalted butter
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 2 Large eggs + 1 egg yolk,
- 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ⅔ cup natural cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons cup all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup malted milk powder
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- ¼ tsp fine sea salt
- ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
- Flaky sea salt, optional – gourmet touch
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper and lightly spray.
- Melt butter over medium-low heat, swirling occasionally. Once brown bits appear and a nutty aroma develops, remove from heat and pour into a mixing bowl, scraping in the bits.
- Stir in powdered sugar until a thick paste forms. Let cool slightly, then whisk in eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla until smooth.
- Whisk in cocoa powder. Fold in flour, malted milk powder, cornstarch, and salt until just combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Spread batter in the prepared pan. Bake 30–33 minutes until set with moist crumbs in the center. Do not overbake.
- Cool completely before lifting from pan. Slice into squares and sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired.
