Chocolate Malted Crunch Recipes

CHOCOLATE MALT ICE CREAM WITH MALT BALL CRUNCH

Steps:

• Put a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan in the freezer to get cold.
• Whisk the milk, egg yolks, sugar, malted milk powder and cocoa powder together in a medium bowl.
• Put the chocolate chips in a large bowl.
• Put the cream in a medium saucepan and heat over medium-high heat until it just starts to simmer. Slowly pour about half of the cream into the bowl with the milk/egg mixture, whisking constantly. Pour all of the liquid from the bowl back into the saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, until the custard reaches 160 degrees F, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into the bowl with the chocolate chips. Let stand 5 minutes, then stir until the chocolate is melted and thoroughly combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until very cold, at least 4 hours.
• Churn the custard in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. When the ice cream is ready, add the crushed malt balls and continue to churn until well distributed.
• Spoon about a third of the ice cream into the cold loaf pan and spread evenly with a spatula. Drizzle in half of the chocolate syrup. Add another third of the ice cream, then smooth and drizzle with the remaining syrup. Smooth the remaining ice cream on top, then cover with plastic and freeze until firm, 2 to 3 hours.

CRUNCHY CHOCOLATE MALT CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Make the frosting: Sprinkle the sugar evenly in a large skillet and add the corn syrup. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring once or twice. Continue to boil, swirling the pan but not stirring, until the caramel is amber. Carefully pour in the heavy cream (it can splatter) and add the butter. Simmer, whisking constantly, until the caramel is smooth, about 2 minutes.
• Combine both chocolates and the salt in a medium heatproof bowl. Pour the hot caramel over the chocolate and let stand until melted, about 5 minutes. Whisk until smooth and shiny, then cover and refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours or overnight. (The frosting can be made up to 2 days ahead.)
• Make the cupcakes: Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line two 12-cup muffin pans with paper liners. Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Sift the malted milk and cocoa powders into another bowl.
• Beat the sugar and butter in a third bowl with a mixer until light and fluffy, about 7 minutes. Add the malted milk powder mixture and beat until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour mixture in three parts, alternating with the half-and-half in two parts, beginning and ending with flour.
• Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cups, filling each about three-quarters of the way. Bake until a toothpick inserted into a cupcake comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool in the pans 10 minutes, then transfer the cupcakes to racks to cool completely.
• Beat the chilled frosting with a mixer or whisk until thick, about 2 minutes, but don't overwhip. Spread on the cupcakes or transfer to a pastry bag with a star tip and pipe on top. Refrigerate until ready to serve, then sprinkle with the cereal.
