Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter room temperature
- 1/4 cup shortening
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups cake flour
- 1/2 cup malted milk powder
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 30 malted milk eggs optional
- green frosting optional
- egg optional, sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large mixing bowl, add in the butter and shortening. Mix on medium until combined.
- Add in the brown and granulated sugars. Mix on medium until light and fluffy. This will take about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla and continue to mix on medium until incorporated.
- Add in the cake flour, malted milk powder, cornstarch, and bakind soda. Mix on low until everything is incorporated.
- Using a small cookie scoop, scoop cookies onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Leave about 2 inches for the cookies to spread.
- Place in the oven to bake for about 6-7 minutes. If you make larger cookies, bake for about 10 minutes until the edges are lightly browned.
- Immediately place a malted milk egg in the center of each cookie and let cool.
- Once the cookies are completely cooled, place the green frosting in a piping bag with the grass tip. I used a premade green frosting and the tip number is 233. Pipe grass around the eggs and add some egg shaped sprinkles!
