On June 5, 1883 the Horlick's company developed the process to dehydrate milk - they mixed it with some malted barley and voila! malted milk was born. Although it was originally intended for babies (as an early version of formula), malt powder became a cornerstone in American culture. In honor of the Horlicks' creation, I thought I'd dig up a great recipe for a simple malted milk. However, my search resulted in something better: A recipe for milk chocolate-malt brownies! I don't know about you guys, but I'm mixing these up tonight! To check out the recipe, read more

Note: It says it makes 48 brownies... 48? They've obviously never seen my kind of brownies!
