Malted Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars

Preheat oven to 375ºF. Line a 9 x 9-inch baking dish with parchment paper and spray with baking spray. Set aside.

In the bowl of your stand mixer (or with a handheld mixer), beat together butter, sugars, malted milk powder and vanilla until creamy, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg until incorporated.

In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add flour mixture to wet mixture and beat until combined. Stir in chocolate chips with a rubber spatula, until chocolate is evenly distributed.

Press cookie dough into prepared baking pan. Bake for about 25 minutes until bars look golden brown on top. Cool bars in the pan on a cooling rack for about 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
