FROSTED MALT-CHOCOLATE COOKIES

Steps:

• Pulse 6 oz. chocolate wafers in a food processor until finely chopped. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Pulse brown sugar, cocoa powder, malted milk powder, baking powder, kosher salt, and 2 cups flour in food processor several times to combine. Add butter and pulse until pieces are broken up into bits no larger than a pea. Add to bowl with chocolate and toss to combine.
• Stir vanilla and 2/3 cup cream in a measuring glass to combine, then slowly drizzle over chocolate mixture, mixing with a fork all the while. Mixture will look dry once you've added all the cream. Knead dough a few times in the bowl (it will not come together and will look crumbly), then transfer to a large piece of plastic wrap. Bring the edges of plastic up and over dough and press down to incorporate floury parts, then wrap tightly. Use the heel of your hand to press down firmly on the dough, forcing it to tightly fill out the plastic. This will help the dough adhere into a single mass and help the flour hydrate. Chill dough until firm, at least 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Roll out dough between 2 sheets of floured parchment paper to 3/4" thick (you might not have to roll it very much). Punch out rounds with cookie cutter as close together as possible. Transfer biscuits to a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze 10 minutes.
• Bake biscuits, rotating baking sheet halfway through, until firm to the touch around the edges, 13-18 minutes. Let cool on baking sheet.
• Meanwhile, heat corn syrup, remaining 4 oz. chocolate, and remaining 1/2 cup cream in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water (bowl should not be touching the water), stirring often, until chocolate is melted and mixture is completely smooth. Set bowl with frosting into a large bowl of ice water and let cool, stirring occasionally, until thickened but still pourable and shiny. Spoon a scant tablespoonful of frosting onto each biscuit; sprinkle with sea salt.
• Do Ahead
• Dough can be made 1 day ahead; keep chilled. Biscuits (without frosting) can be baked 2 days ahead; store airtight at room temperature.

CHOCOLATE-GLAZED MALT COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. In medium bowl, mix flour, 3/4 cup cocoa, 3/4 cup malted milk powder and the baking soda; set aside. In large bowl, beat 1 cup butter, the granulated sugar and 2/3 cup brown sugar with electric mixer on medium speed 5 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating until blended. Beat in vanilla. Beat in flour mixture just until blended. Onto ungreased cookie sheet, drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart.
• Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until cookies are puffed and edges are set but centers are still soft. Cool 5 minutes; remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely.
• In 2-quart saucepan, heat 1/4 cup butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar and the milk over medium heat 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Remove from heat. Add 3/4 cup malted milk powder and 1/4 cup cocoa; stir until smooth. Spread glaze on tops of cookies. Sprinkle with malted milk balls.

CHOCOLATE MALT SANDWICH COOKIES

Steps:

• Make cookies: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with Silpat nonstick baking mats or parchment paper; set aside. Sift flour, cocoa powder, malt powder, baking soda, and salt together into a medium bowl; set aside.
• Put sugar and butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; cream until pale and fluffy. Mix in egg and vanilla. Mix in creme fraiche. Mix in 3 tablespoons hot water. On low speed, mix in flour mixture.
• Drop dough onto lined sheets with a 1/2-ounce-capacity ice-cream scoop, about 3 1/2 inches apart (or use a tablespoon; gently shape dough into balls). Bake until tops flatten and cookies are just firm, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely.
• Make filling: Melt chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth. Let cool until just warm.
• Put malt powder and cream cheese in a clean mixing bowl; return to mixer. Mix on medium until completely smooth. Gradually mix in half-and-half, then mix in melted chocolate and the vanilla. Refrigerate until thick, about 30 minutes.
• Return bowl to mixer; mix on high speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
• Assemble cookies: Spread a heaping tablespoon of filling on one cookie with an offset spatula. Press bottom of a second cookie onto filling. Repeat.
